It would be very easy to reverse, if literally anyone was willing to.
- jayd16 2y agoHillary was for single payer. Trump ran on repealing even the ACA. I don't think it's as simple as literally anyone.
- KptMarchewa 2y agoI'm not talking about changing the healthcare system entirely, but the tax deduction status.
- consteval 2y agoRight, but we're currently at a point politically where we're heavily considering regressions in healthcare and insurance, not progressions. We're talking about bringing back denying coverage for existing conditions and allowing insurance to deny medication on grounds of religious reasons. Changing the tax deduction status would harm businesses, and therefore I can't see a conservative administration ever letting that fly.
