Unintended Consequences. They are always a problem when one makes sweeping changes. In life. In business, and certainly in laws.
There will certainly be unintended consequences from changing Obamacare, the Tax Code and the Infrastructure Spending Bill. The roll back of certain regulations may also have some unintended consequences.
The fear of taking the heat from unintended consequences have kept the Republican Members of The House and Senate paralyzed far too long. President Trump, being a successful Business Executive for many years understands when he takes on a huge project there will always be unintended consequences some good, some not so good. Being a man of action he makes a decision, goes for it, and then deals with the consequences as they arise.
These unintended consequences don't have to be a huge problem, provided you are willing to address them as soon as they arise. Instead of doing that, Politicians are more likely to use the negatives as a political bat to beat the opposition party with and leave the American citizen to suffer. The Affordable Care Act is a prime example.
The Economy has shown signs of roaring back since President Trump's election. The promises of rolling back regulations, tax reform, infrastructure spending and repealing and replacing Obamacare is what has caused this.
Republicans are at risk now. They must get these issues addressed quickly. If they don't they risk the $3.2 trillion in new wealth created in the stock market since the election. They also risk losing the new investments in this country business leaders have promised.
Then they must be committed to react to any negative consequences quickly and efficiently. The American people can live with and forgive mistakes provided they are admitted and fixed quickly. Its the cover up and lack of activity we get sick of.
Both Party's if they truly have the American Citizens best interests in mind will come together and make these things happen.
