You are correct. Under President Romney Obamacare will become fully implemented. Romney may tinker with it a little but will not repeal it. The dirty secret is big corporations want to offload the cost of medical care on the government. Under Obamacare a corporation spending $8000 per employee for medical care benefits can dump its medical plan and pay a $2000 annual fine per employee to the government. This represents a $6000 savings per employee. A company with 1000 employees will save $6 million per year by dumping it’s medical plan. a large corporation with 100,000 employees will save $600 million per year. Romney’s buddies on Wall Street can’t wait for this bonanza to occur in 2014. This is the real reason Boehner and the Republican Congess have done nothing to stop or slow down the implementation of Obamacare.

Once millions of employees lose their company paid medical care and have to go into the market to pay $8000 or more out of pocket for insurance, the Democrats know the public will demand a single payer government funded system. The Dems will bash the heartless corporations for dropping employee medical plans and gladly support a government single payer program. This has been their goal all along and the Republican establishment has been playing with them all the way.

One of the first acts of the GOP when they were sworn in last election was an attempt to stop funding of ObamaCare. The establishment in the rules committee immediately rejected the bill and we haven’t heard a peep since.
