    Will not matter by then.
    Trumo or Hillary will blame the past president by then for it since after all its called obamacare and say we need to do a complete revamp and just have the .gov take over fully as you can see the commercial marketa cannot handle it.

    So instead every american will get health care, just like every american has an ss number and gets ss benefits. Its a right afetr all, blah, blah, blah

    And the masses will cheer and appluad as the president is giving them something for free.

    Wow free health what a wonderful gift.

    ......
    Note i said free,healthcare.
    I did not nor have they mentionwd the quality of such health care. ;)

    First, I agree that the ACA is bad law. Not only doesn't it fix the problems it was supposed to, in fact it can only make it worse.

    ...but (and with me, you knew there was a "but")...

    ...even without the ACA the American healthcare system is headed for crisis, and by some metrics is already there. Our system was already the most expensive on Earth, with results no better than far more affordable systems elsewhere...in some ways, worse.

    What is the Republican's plan? Stand back and profit from other people's misery brought about by the status quo.

    That's why we are in this ACA mess at all...people are fed up with the status quo, and Obama had a plan to do something.

    Well, here's your chance Republican's...offer us something better.

    This is the plan. Obamacare was designed to fail. Its designed to make the little guy bankrupt, consolodate the big corps, and when more and more people lose their coverage, or prices get so high, they will beg the gov't to step in(because those people are idiots). Single payer will be the result. The democrats are evil. They know the people would never just give up their freedom and hand over their health to the gov't. They must do something step by step to make it so bad that the people demand something be done and they will come in and save the day! Obamacare is the stepping stone to single payer. The dems have admitted it, the media wont report anything, and the republican establishment is ok with this. They will remain in their position while the country fails. The sick part is that our side new it, screamed it and no one believed it. They called us racists, bigots, etc. and that worked. The republicans stayed quiet and funded it. Unless something dramatic happens, this is here to stay and we will all pay the price. meanwhile those idiots that voted for it will remain uncovered and still blame rich people and corporations. Sadly, public education has dumbed enough people down that there arent enough people left who know whats going on.
    If I remember correctly everytime the Repubs stood up to the budget increases they were accused of shutting down the govt so that the poor would suffer.

    Duh!!
    Every biz person could have told you this.
    Water flows thru the patch of least resistance.
    Off course biz are going to drop their full time employees to not have to pay for another expense, ie health care. Duh!
    A biz is in the biz of making money not having more expenses

    Now, even Democrats can see the ObamaCare death spiral | New York Post

    Minnesota Gov. Mark Dayton — once one of the Affordable Care Act’s most enthusiastic champions — is the latest Democrat to publicly eat crow for that support.
    With good reason: Tens of thousands of Minnesotans are losing their coverage next year. And premiums on individual plans — which enroll 250,000 North Star State residents — will rise an average 50 percent to 67 percent.

    How many republicans voted for the ACA? None.

    It was shoved up our ass in the middle of the night by democrats that didn't even read the legislation, by their own admission. Obama's contribution to the ACA was to sign it. That's about it. Time to clean house.
