Descripción de Why can’t we get our act together when it comes to health care?

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has once again unveiled a health care bill and announced that a vote could come soon. That exhaustion you feel is the same despair that seeps over you when a pair of ill-matched friends announce for the 17th time that they’re getting back together.
 
As with those friends, there seems to be no set of mutual goals upon which a durable partnership can be built. Many Republican legislators want Obamacare to die. Others would probably attend the funeral with ill-concealed delight, but they don’t want a reputation for having killed it. Still others would like to be able to tell voters that they “did something” about Obamacare, even though in reality they are loath to actually, you know, do something — because their states would lose money or voters would lose insurance.
 
Indeed, these may not be discrete factions of Republicans on the Hill. Often these desires seem to war within the same head. Small wonder that the longer the party works on the compromise bill, the more it inches toward the status quo. As Phil Klein of the Washington Examiner noted, “Brick by brick, GOP versions keep restoring parts of Obamacare.”
 
Whether or not you think the status quo preferable, that’s going to be a tough sell to a lot of senators — and even if they pass it, in the House it’s going to be … challenging. The hard-liners in the lower chamber aren’t going to rubber-stamp a bill that looks like Obamacare with the fonts changed.
