Amidst the chaos caused by the avalanche of revelations concerning Mueller's Russia investigation, the Republicans are still trying to argue that the current health insurance system is collapsing and dying, and that the US health care system should basically be taken out back and shot. What's more, they argue that the money saved by letting people die should be handed to the richest people in the country by giving them tax cuts. To a European observer, like me, nothing of that makes any sense at all.
