Unknown at this point.So who is?
This country is hungry for a true leader to step forth. A Ronald Reagan, if you will. A leader who can both inspire the American people and get congress to follow him.
I should have gotten into politics.
Unknown at this point.So who is?
If Ronald Reagan were president with this Congress, he would not be able to accomplish much as the majority of the Republican members of Congress have gone too far to the left. Ted Cruz without a doubt in my mind is the most Reaganesque member of Congress and the majority of his fellow Republicans cannot stand him; especially the GOP leadership in Congress.Unknown at this point.

Here's one significant problem with today's Republicans in Congress - political power. They want to be able to control the president. They want a president who will rubber stamp any legislation they put on that president's desk. They have gone to the left in an attempt to get votes from the left-leaning independents only because they want that political power. That's why the GOP leadership wanted Mitt Romney for president. They want a president they feel they can control. It's why they didn't want to see Cruz get the nomination.
They will pass a single-payer health care program for the sole purpose of gaining more left-leaning independent voters, while also believing some of the Democratic voters will vote for them as well. Of course this will push the Democrats even further to the left, because those Republicans like Graham, McConnell, McCain, et al will move further to the left as well.
Trump would sign any health care bill Congress puts on his desk simply so he can take credit for repealing Obamacare. If he was as smart as he claims to be, he would be presenting something to Congress since Congress can't come up with anything good themselves.All that is true but Trump himself isn't exactly a staunch conservative. As mentioned before, he would have signed that GOP healthcare bill and acted like it's exactly what he wanted and it's the best healthcare plan in the world even though anyone with an IQ over 50 would know otherwise.
Although it's a start, it's not the complete solution to Obamacare. You are sTrump would sign any health care bill Congress puts on his desk simply so he can take credit for repealing Obamacare. If he was as smart as he claims to be, he would be presenting something to Congress since Congress can't come up with anything good themselves.
Although this is a start, it's still a long way from repealing and replacing Obamacare. You are correct that Congress is the problem. As I have said before, the Republicans lied to us big time in 2010, when they stood on the House floor with rolled up sheets of paper in their hands yelling they had a health care reform plan. Those were obviously blank because they had absolutely nothing to put on the floor to vote on when this Congress was seated this past January. Instead we watched as they scrambled to pull a plan out of their asses that thankfully did not have the votes to pass.I'll answer the question....the Republican Congress is the real enemy. Their lack of action is embarrassing and will probably result in drastic changes after the next election cycle. Our country will suffer for it for years to come.
That's alright, Trump will take care of it without them:

BAM!!!
Trump just got himself re-elected for a 2nd term. You hear it here first!!!
Grab some bench and some seeds then sit back and enjoy the game.That's gonna be quite the feat since I don't think he sticks around for the full 4 years of this term.
Do you know how much of a tax credit employers with more than 25 employees get for providing health care?Many of us who actually understand economics in a market driven economy predicted what Obamacare would do, and we were dead on.
Are you referring to the SHOP tax credit? It covers employers with under 25 employees who pay at least 50% of their employee healthcare premium. It is a 35% deduction in ADDITION to the standard 100% deduction (with some exceptions) as a direct cost available to all employers.Do you know how much of a tax credit employers with more than 25 employees get for providing health care?
That would be the one, but what tax credit do employers with more than 25 employees get for providing health care insurance?Are you referring to the SHOP tax credit?

It is a 35% deduction in ADDITION to the standard 100% deduction (with some exceptions) as a direct cost available to all employers.
But, as you know, a deduction is against a roughly 35% tax, so even at 135% small business deduction, it is always better to not spend the money in the first place.
You can write the cost off as a direct cost of labor just like an employee paycheck or other legitimate business expense. It is 100% deductible with some few exceptions for Cadillac plans offered to executives. The additional 35% carve out amounts to a 135% deduction for health plans to small employers.That would be the one, but what tax credit do employers with more than 25 employees get for providing health care insurance?
yep you're either part of the problem or part of the solution.He also isn't the solution.
