I’m no fan of Presidential Executive Orders. It’s a sad commentary on our political system when we allow a President to act like a King. You wouldn’t know it by our Congresses lack of action, but they can actually stop any executive order that they want to. Obviously during the Obama years, the Republicans didn’t want to stop President Obama.
Yesterday’s executive order signed by President Trump was the reverse of most executive orders. Instead of telling the country what they would do, he signed an order that said that states couldn’t infringe on freedom. How interesting and how refreshing.
This certainly doesn’t repeal Obamacare. Obamacare’s mandating coverages for things that most people don’t care about is the biggest reason for the huge increases in costs. You ought to be able to buy coverage for those things you are most worried about.
