Which is why I say, “Don’t defund it, let it happen”.

Of course Obamacare will fail, in every important sense. But what makes you think it will be repealed?

How many failed government programs have been repealed?

By what process would it be repealed?

It will be repealed when the majority of voters, especially the low-information dolts who vote for the Rats election after election, finally figure out how bad it is and vote for candidates who WILL repeal it.

It won’t be repealed but replaced by single payer. That was the plan to begin with.

Exactly right S_T_A. Here, in Canada, we’ve been fixing medicare continuously for 50 years (most often, by the application of additional government funding). It’s not the same system as Obamacare — but the principle is the same. No organization ever just willingly withers up and blows away. That’s especially the case for public-sector organizations. Once Obamacare is launched, millions of people will have a strong vested interest in keeping it going.

When California Obot voters like my sister and her cop husband see their health care costs rise 66% in one year, there's going to be hell to pay at the ballot box and in the press.

The citizens of this country are going to make Democrats' lives a real nightmare after the pain hits home.

Unfortunately you’re correct. It will have to collapse under is own weight before it fails and the defund effort will be as productive as the Fast and Furious or Benghazi investigations. This portends a long, chaotic and agonizing three and half to four years for America.
