In the end the Republicans did the same thing. They locked up copies of the bill so other Republicans could not read it. And they said they could not measure the impact of the bill on taxes or the budget, but they had to pass it to find out. Either way, though there is trutch ot the fact that medical care policies are difficult to predict and need to be tested and adjusted. This is what should happen with Obamacare-- make a few small changes and it will be fine-- two studies show this-- One by Standard and Poors, and one by the Kaiser Family Foundation-- both nonpartisan studies. A few other studies also show the stabilization of the insurance market and  increased availability of coverage. Two thirds of americans do not want Obamacare repealed-- they want to see it improved.
