It's not intended to succeed.

It's only purpose is to contribute to overwhelming the system.

Just watch. Next to be delayed will be the “Penalty Phase” for people who don’t buy insurance. The IRS is nowhere near ready to implement that.

Its other purpose is to further the notion of legislating from the 4th branch - the bureaucracy. 3000 pages of law that we’re now hearing various aspects are unworkable, so the bureaucrats apply non-legislated band-aids.

John Roberts is a sick puppy. He knew this too. He just wanted to enjoy watching it.

Check out the Homeland Security bubble and the Soc Security bubble performing somewhat similar tasks. Can’t the IRS do the same thing while they are screwing us in all other areas?

Most of us here on this website knew this.

The whole idea was to further weaken America’s economy and destroy the lives of more and more Americans. Unfortunately there is a large segment who just lay back in their Barcoloungers, fill up their navels with chip dip and snack their lives away.

Guy... I disagree. Government is not inefficient, it is corrupt. They will take from us at the speed of lightning....It is only service in return that will be delayed.

This is not a chart of Obamacare. It is a chart showing how Hillarycare would have worked...or not.

Any resemblence is purely coincidental, no doubt...

First, break the commercial insurance plans by placing such high demands on their services (through mandates for “specified services” and coverage of pre-existing conditions), they cannot operate on a fiscally sound basis, without going to very high premiums. Next, set up a version of a “clearinghouse” for reinsurance pools in each state, to be funded by a mandate placed upon the state, essentially extending Medicaid to those classes not now covered. Thirdly, make the penalties for not participating in an insurance plan quite low at first, then mandating higher and higher fines each year for continued failure to enroll in some plan, and offer the employer the right to opt out of providing coverage, paying a fine in lieu of the cost of coverage. Then, approaching the concept of “single-payer” coverage, after all the other plans have been priced out of the market, only one solution remains, heavily subsidized at first, of course.

Of course, at this point economics rears its head. As the realities set in, the medical services will be rationed, at times in a very severe manner, like a “death panel”, or by making the appointment for actual consultation or treatment on a “first-come, first-served” basis, regardless of severity of the symptoms.

Unless, or course, you are “politically connected”. If it is the approved and correct connection, you go to the head of the line.

Also, those with “reactionary” opinions somehow get shifted ever backward on the priorities.

But that is “socially justified” and “fair”.

6 Minutes - Jonah Goldberg on Fox News

At 2:46 – there is no Obamacare – outsource decisions, regardless of Congressional Law, they will impose whatever they want – arbitrary system, they get to decide which laws are enforced.

These acts may doom immigration reform because of the erosion of trust in government.

Every piece of this national abortion the thugs decide not to implement just gets them closer to their real goal: a single payer system.

“Let’s take the existing healthcare system and screw it up so bad that the masses will be thrilled when we introduce the “new,” simple single payer system.

That’s the blue print. To bad they have to waste billions of taxpayer dollars to get there.

My hope is that, after nobamacare crashes, there will be a national revolt over any other “replacement” healthcare system proposed, including single payer.

Some smokers trying to get coverage next year under President Obama’s health care law may get a break from tobacco-use penalties

Here is the result of "tobacco-use penalties" as applied in the UK version of Obamacare....

Mr Eeles claims his first two operations at the Queen Elizabeth II hospital in Welwyn Garden City, Hertfordshire, were cancelled due to a lack of beds and operating time respectively.

His third operation in February was postponed after he was found to have high blood pressure, while the fourth, scheduled for May, was abandoned because of concerns about his smoking

....and this...

Mr Eeles, from Welham Green, Hertfordshire, applied for employment and support allowance but a doctor ruled he is ineligible for both because he can turn on a tap.
