“Its” (not “It’s”).
OK, so when they take away my affordable catastrophic insurance and force me to buy unaffordable Obamacare insurance that I can’t afford and thus won’t buy, incurring their mandated tax-penalty which I won’t pay, thereby incurring their wrath and consequences, impounding my property and sending me off to the Gulag . . . will I get to come back if it collapses? Or will it collapse sooner rather than later?
Just getting ready to post the same thing.
Maybe he DID mean “it is failure”... or not.
The failure is planned.
Every business person I know says the cost is soaring, they are seriously depressed and cutting back business plans, and they are talking about dropping employee coverage because paying the voucher fine is cheaper.
So the American people are taking it in the back, a complete lie and disaster to insure Obama’s non working voters.
It’s not supposed to work. It’s supposed to fail, forcing single-payer. Duh.
It was intended to fail.
It ony paves the way for a single-payer system.
Thank you to all the dumb asses that put this maggot back in office.
dumb?
Maybe - lazy thieves, definitely.
Please fix the apostrophe. I can’t read an article with a glaring error in the title.
oh for Pete’s sakes it Cato institute, get something more respectable
The ironic thing in my mind is that the Health Care issue was one that really needed to be addressed. If 0bama had taken the time and examined each part and it’s impact logically, potentially a good law may have come out of it. There are some aspects, the “pre-existing conditions” clause for example, that even the most conservative of my friends and acquaintances support. However, the way it was rammed down our throats and the impact, not only on the Health Care Industry, but the economy, is intolerable. The result is that the entire monstrosity must be nullified.
Or, will they just put up with the chaos until they get used to it?

The dirty little secret is that Congress will bow to the public pressure and pain created by Obamacare and eliminate the cost savings measures. They will not reduce payments to doctors and hospitals further increasing the costs and adding to the debt and deficit. The Dems will do whatever they can to fix and save Obamacare. In the process they will wreck the healthcare system and bankrupt the country.
The last thing we needed was another entitlement program. SS and Medicare now represent a $60 trillion unfunded liability. We have 70 million now on Medicaid and Obamacare will add 18 million more to the system. Add to that an aging population that is retiring at 10,000 a day for the next 20 years. Health care costs are going up period.
Obamacare will be the albatross around Obama and the Dems' neck. Maybe we will get a Rep who can really detail the disaster that Obamacare is and will be. Romney was hamstrung in that regard.
This is what happens when you nominate a candidate that effectively took health care off the table as a campaign issue.
I wonder if employers will "get used to" the new plan? Today, if I am sick and need to take time off of work to see a doctor, I can usually get in and get out in a day's time. Tomorrow, I might still get sick, but I might wait days to get in to a doctor. And perhaps longer, if specialized treatment is required. How long will employers be tolerant of this inefficiency?
The best bet for defeating Obamacare at this point is to start a movement to have it apply equally to *all* Americans, including our worthless leadership and, of course, all union workers.
