A couple of legitimate questions I'd like to ask you

I have enjoyed reading your perspective on healthcare SH.

Why is the onus on the GOP to fix the ACA? Why do they have to introduce the politically unpopular items (e.g raise penalty) to stabilize the issues?

Have Dems introduced bills to fix faults in it even under the GOP majority? (I understand that they may not do that since it could just be a non-starter)

Everything I've heard lately conveys that Paul, Ryan, Price have legitimate replacement plans they're going to push forward as soon as Price is confirmed. They seem to want to repeal and replace simultaneously.

If there was just one thing that I'd really like to have a bipartisan solution, it'd be with our healthcare system. I realize that's a fairy tale though since it seems there's too much on the line for failure.
