Obama brought up ideas to use in the new bill by republicans, even an idea from the guy I voted for, McCain. I dont really think hes making any republicans “take it like a man” and deal with the new bill.
Take note of reasons 1, 2, 3, 5 and 6.

What’s the GOP alternative? Oh yeah Insurancetakesallyourmoney
Actually the GOP’s plan was to fix Medicare and roll the ~30% of uninsured legal Americans who legitimately cant afford it into the financially stable version of the program. This allows everyone to use the existing infrastructure and wouldn’t interfere with the private sector.
Btw in case you weren’t aware. 21% of the uninsured make over $75,000. That kinda conflicts what you’ve been told so so here’s more to chew on. ~40% of the total uninsured have household incomes of over $50,000. When you subtract those who can afford insurance and the illegal immigrants you discover the uninsured in this country is actually a very small minority, one that can easily be rolled into an existing program without re-arranging all the pieces over.
