The House can and should pass a full repeal of Obamacare even before specific budgetary issues are dealt with, just like it did in the last term. Sure, repeal wouldn't pass the 'Rat infested Senate, but at least it will show the country that the Washington Pubbies at least have some backbone, and it will be politically popular as well, since the majority of Americans have never liked Obamacare.

Don’t have to repeal the law. Neuter it. Don’t fund any line item for any agency that is in any way connected with Obamacare.

There are thousands of “dead laws” on the books that never get funding so you never hear too much about them.

If the Republicans were truely serious about doing away with Obamacare, simply de-fund it. The Senate can’t do anything about it except bolt back on to an HR, so the House can take it back off.

ObamaCare is all about single-payer.

Medicaid is the “doorway” that single-payer is going to be implemented through.

Governors are enabling that transition. Obama will have the states implement single-payer for him through state Medicaid programs.

No fight will be needed at the federal level.

Incrementalism. It’s what’s for dinner.

Unless we can get 41 solid senate votes in 2014 Obamacare is funded for the next fours years and I would say that it might be impossible after that to get rid of entirely.

With stimulus in 2009, roughly $1T, that became part of the baseline budget. Because the Senate will not vote on a budget that $1T stays in there. This was the plan all along! How to increase the budget by $1T 101!

What would happen if everyone in America took 2 days off, from work, shopping (food, fuel etc) didn’t use any thing like t.v’s, radios, lights, etc...didn’t drive anywhere, didn’t use the internet, cell phones, land lines, etc....what would this do to our ecomony? Would it show the man in washington d.c. ( I can’t call him President, he doesn’t know what leadership is)?

Obamacare does two things from a high level standpoint. It forces insurance companies to pay out more in benefits, and provides a weak promise to put more money into the system.

Rates are going up, no doubt. They're on an unsustainable path and the government exchanges are being created to eventually provide universal care aka socialized medicine to all.
