The recent Trumpcare plan encountered
Limited chances for survival.
It hacked away at Obamacare
And found itself dead on arrival.
The plan was altered to have more appeal
To the House Freedom Caucus. Why?
The House Freedom Caucus supports
The freedom to get sick and die.
Cutting ten essential services°
Made the proposed plan a sham
By turning it into a possible
Nightmarish insurance scam.
Praise to the members of Congress who
For the RIGHT reasons boldly decried
The plan proposed by Paul Ryan--
A plan laced with cyanide.
Affordable health care for all
Should be our principal goal.
Profit-making insurance companies
Shouldn't be getting out of control.
Trump says, "Let's just watch
Obamacare keep imploding,"
As saboteurs continue to take
Shots at the plan and keep reloading.
Republican leaders don't really want
To fix what we have, to tweak or massage it;
They want to see Obamacare fail
By letting companies sabotage it.
People first, then money.
Let's keep our priorities straight
And not let cold avarice thrive
While health and compassion disintegrate.
