Socialist Security is also a Ponzi scheme, but we still have it after 75 years. It doesn't matter if it doesn't work. Obama just has to get it implemented, and the "hater" name calling will be all he needs to keep it going in perpetuity.

I understand your point but Social Security is a walk in the park compared to Obamacare, which is a major threat on two fronts to people’s lives: (1) high and likely increasing costs that will make it unaffordable to most and (2) massive deterioration in what is generally understood to be a well functioning health care system that delivers high quality medical care.
IMO Social Security and Obamacare are totally different programs in terms of their impact on people. At the risk of great over simplification, one is basically an annuity that provides supplemental income; the other makes Americans pay for the dismanteling of their own medical services.
