No, you are correct.
The most insidious part of Obamacare is the power gathered to Fedzilla by all the agencies created to facilitate it.
And the control of all medical records.
Repeal means taking power away from Fedzilla, something the Uniparty eunuchs will never do.
The fact that the individual mandate is a "tax" is what is ultimately causing the whole thing to unravel. Congress can never let it be known that the whole thing is being undermined by two groups of people: (1) those who have figured out a way to get an ObamaCare exemption, and (2) those who have said to themselves: "OK -- it's a tax. I'll pay the IRS a 'penalty' in the amount of X instead of paying 10X for worthless insurance coverage."
This is what is driving the insurers to insolvency ... because the vast majority of their new enrollees are people who need expensive medical care.
