7:50Now PlayingThe Republican healthcare plan has been scored by the CBO. The results are bad. Cenk Uygur, host of The Young Turks, breaks it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.

"Premiums would vary significantly according to health status and the types of benefits provided, and less healthy people would face extremely high premiums," the CBO's report said.
