If Republicans Screw Up On Health Care, Single-Payer Is Next [VIDEO]

Wednesday on The Chad Hasty Show, Chad jumped head-first into the hotly disputed subject of the GOP health care plan proposal.

Hasty talked about the many facets of the proposal, explored why people are so polarized on it, and took a couple of great calls including one from a local physician,

Summing up his thoughts about the proposal, Hasty issued a warning to Republicans, saying,

I'm going to wait and see what Trump does. He has surprised me at every turn. So I'm going to give the guy a chance, and say OK, but, let me tell you this: If Republicans screw this up, and there's a multitude of ways they can screw this up...there's going to be hell to pay for these Republicans. And not only that, I think you have one chance...If this doesn't work and premiums continue to skyrocket and people are still losing money, the road we're going down is single-payer, that's the next step...Democrats come back in charge, you're going to a single-payer system. So that's why this has to be correct. This has to be right. And this is why good negotiations must happen. Because the next step, if Republicans fail, is single-payer, and that will be a disaster for this country and for health care.
