It’s too soon to repeal the law. Too many people still think it means free stuff. It has to cause real heartache before the public will see repealing it as a good thing.

In the meantime, if it goes on much longer, it will be too imbedded to repeal.

Vigorous enforcement? Strip out executive "exemptions", "extensions", and "waivers"?
Sounds to me like it'd be the best way to make everyone realize what a crap-bag ObamaCare is.

The really ironic thing is that, the website's costs alone (~$2.1 billion) divided by the US population (316.1 Million) is $6.6 million — that's right, for what it's cost on the website alone we could have given every person in the country a check for $6.5 million dollars and come out ahead.

That's how corrupt the system is.

Shouldn’t that be $6.60 instead of $6,600,000?

It’s corrupt alright, but your math isn’t all that great. (2.1E9/315E6)=6.667. That’s $6.67 per person.

You need to check your math, it’s roughly $6.50 each.

You might want to recheck your math.
