"Health care reform's going to be a big part of the agenda. When I say we're going to have a very aggressive first 100 days agenda, we got a lot of things still on the table," Johnson, R-La., said in Bethlehem while campaigning for GOP House candidate Ryan Mackenzie, according to video footage obtained by NBC News. "No Obamacare?" one attendee asked Johnson, referring to the law Democrats passed in 2010, also known as the Affordable Care Act. "No Obamacare," Johnson responded, rolling his eyes. "The ACA is so deeply ingrained, we need massive reform to make this work and we got a lot of ideas on how to do that."

Killing ObamaCare is not just a goal of Spkr Johnson.
It is a goal of the GOP.
The question is why?
The GOP used to be quite in favor of the concepts of ACA.
Why?
Because the GOP seemed to be in favor of reducing medical costs.
But then, wealthy private equity entered into the medical industry and profit seems to have become the goal, not patient outcome ...
So, a person visiting the emergency room?
Yeah, we (the GOP) don't want to pay for that.
They did not seem to like the additional cost they were assessed with because of those who went to the hospital for treatment, and might die if they die not get the treatment they could not afford. So, hospitals spread that cost of treatment across all other patients. And the GOP seems to object.
Now that hospitals seem to be run by private equity for profit, the equations has changed.
Pay or die, now seems to be the focus of the Republicans.

The GQP originally calling ACA Obamacare but then millions signed up and they like so now they've created a monster that people love named after that black guy who always outsmarted them and who they still hate because if it.
