Passing something that they can say repeals Obamacare is more important than anything the bill does.
They only care about winning so they can cut taxes and do things to benefit corporations.
This is how fascism works.

I am getting the feeling that when people (and their friends, family, neighbors, co-workers) are finally seriously getting hurt physically and financially by the results of the ACA there will be rebellion. Climate change won't be seen and felt as drastically and as quickly. Health and money directly effect people and women will be hit even harder than men. That's who will be leading a revolution and it will be done with both brains and passion.
