Does anyone really believe this will be repealed? Especially now that millions of people are using the system.

Once these entitlements are put in place, they rarely ever go away.

“Does anyone really believe this will be repealed? Especially now that millions of people are using the system.”
It’s been widely reported that the real number of paying people is around 800k. The MSM is giving them cover, but it can’t last. The budget will tell.

Even if ALL of them were on medicaid and would stay on medicaid,
any repeal effort would be met with the LIE of
“kicking people out of the healthcare system”

Exactly. There were really only two opportunities to kill this monster. Chief Justice Roberts sold us out on the first chance. The second and final chance was to turn 0bama out of office.

I knew once both opportunities were lost, the game was over. The bill became entrenched in our society. It can no more be gotten rid of now than we could get rid of social security or medicaid.

Not gonna happen.

They can only tax so much until the bottom falls out, and they can’t put everyone in jail when it does. So when there is no money to pay for it, O’care will either be repealed or go broke eventually-it will be an unpleasant trip to get there though...

We are unlikely to remove all of it because we are cycles away from the potential for 60 votes. We must fight for it and then dismantle it piece by piece. 2012 was the last chance to truly undo it in one signature. We know for a fact many signed up had better plans before, so we communicate undoing the damage and lowering costs and improving plans. Many who signed up did it out of necessity.

We’re going to have to deal with the damage done for a long time to get to a better system. This program can’t be fixed. It must be undone a bit at a time and get the tentacles of the bureaucracy out if it. It’s a fight that must be worth having.

It can be revised to EXCLUDE all the contraceptive cr** at a minimum.

The problem is....why is the government sucking up any money at all in the form of a penalty.
