Spoilerit will profit billionaires while bankrupting and killing thousands of Americans. Cenk Uygur and John Iadarola, hosts of The Young Turks, discuss. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.

"House Republicans appear closer than ever to repealing and replacing the Affordable Care Act, after the House Freedom Caucus formally endorsed a revised version of the GOP health care bill and moderates looked to be largely going along with the changes.

It’s still a real question whether Republicans have the votes. There were almost enough moderates publicly opposing the health care bill before an amendment worked out between co-chairman of the moderate Tuesday Group Tom MacArthur (R-N.J.) and Freedom Caucus Chairman Mark Meadows (R-N.C.) dragged the legislation even further to the right. But those changes, which would significantly undermine protections for people with pre-existing conditions, have won over a large swath of conservatives.

The Freedom Caucus announced Wednesday that at least 80 percent of its group of three dozen members supported the revised bill, meaning at most there are seven conservative holdouts from the caucus. At the same time, moderates don’t seem to be significantly withdrawing their support of the bill, even as the legislation would now allow states to let insurers offer significantly higher rates for sick people.”*
