I disagree with that. The major flaw with Obamacare is that it screws younger/healthier people for the benefit of older people who have far more medical costs.

Go back over the last few election cycles and ask yourself two questions:

1. Which age/demographic groups voted for Democrats?

2. Which age/demographic groups voted for Republicans?

When you answer those two questions, you'll discover why the Republicans are more likely to lose Congress in 2018 if they DO repeal Obamacare.

It's the same reason why the original Obamacare screwed seniors by cutting $500 billion out of Medicare over ten years, and Republicans successfully won control of Congress in 2010 by promising to restore those cuts.

Excellent points.

1. Which age/demographic groups voted for Democrats?

Gays: The CDC reports that the estimated lifetime cost of treating HIV is $379,000 (in 2010 dollars), and 20% of gay men are HIV+. Considering the percentage of promiscuous gay men in the entertainment industry, this was one reason the Hollywood crowd were big fans of Obamacare.

Democrats are going to vote Democrat no matter what.

But if Republicans dont do what they were elected to do ... Republicans will stay home and Democrats will take congress.
