Anybody? >> sure. one thing that obama care did is that it had younger enrollees subsidize -- the senate and house bills are rolling that back, so you have a 27-year-old in south carolina making $40,000 a year theyre going to pay there $1500 or 38% less. thats a good benefit. you also have healthy people who dont want all of this coverage. they dont take prescription drugs, they dont need mental health care, for instance, maybe they dont want maternity, so they wont have to buy these robust plan...

>> the fundamental flaw of obamacare is you can buy insurance after you get sick, but it also tells healthy young people your insurance will cost more. when the mandate what insurance has to cover, you price out theual healthy people, and the only people left get sicker and sicker what they call adverse -- my problem with the senate bill is we dont fix that. we keep ten of 12 of the obamacare regulations, we still keep the idea you can buy it after you get sick, so im concerned the death spiral ...

Want to pay for coverage on their owns if they need it, those people will be able to buy skimpier plans, and those plans will be cheaper. you also have the wealthy outside of this issue of coverage, obama care levies a lot of taxes in order to pay to for a lot of this coverage expansion. and of course insure serious are also going to benefit to some extent, because interestingly this senate bill will stabilize the obamacare markets for a few years before they eventually kill them, because these ...

Going to fix the problem here. >> so you see this as being too similar to obamacare, what you see are problems. let me show you the latest polling. right now 51% of those polled have a favorable view of obama care. thats the highest number that the kaiser family foundation has seen. meantime, you can see the gop health care plan is just 30%. obamacare is pop ought lars right now, senator. >> if youre a plummer or a pest control guy and youre trying to buy insurance, in 50% of the country theres ...

He can make a prove. and on the flip side looking at the waning months of his administration and he has to balance both. >> i think hes demonstrated contrary to what other folks anticipated hes not planning to lose any ground whatsoever. hes continued to move his agenda forward. i think there are two places where the republicans and the president can work together. certainly on the trade agenda. if they can move appropriation issues. not the crisis continuing resolutions we saw often. there are ...

But in those tales, they turned out to be just that. tales. stories made up from lies, distorted by republicans to grab headlines or make political advertisements. >> senator reid seemed to attempt to backtrack a short time later but senate republicans were not having it. the gop releasing 100 cases describing americans pulled from a variety of news reports in recent weeks all of those who say have suffered very real and negative consequences thanks to obamacare. among the example, a 31-year-old...
