The thing is; people are always happy about tearing stuff down 'cuz we like seeing shit get knocked down, but they don't like the idea of building things up, as it requires thinking, foresight, and understanding what may come. That's why a lot of GOP lawmakers want to see the ACA dismantled, but if you ask them what plans would they set up to replace it, they either clam up, redirect you to someone else, or suggest something lame like "voucher-based" or "free, open market".
