I think that one house of Congress could simply refuse any appropriations for the whole program. It would take more guts than one usually sees in politics, with all sorts of screaming and name-calling in the MSM and from the socialists and commies, but it could be done.
Another scenario: Wait five years, and when the whole thing is bust, no one will be able to make the program work, and a complete overhaul of the country will happen., That is the hard way, but it may be the only way.
Our biggest allies may be the slugs who benefit from this bill. Yes, when something is free, it is always used wastefully and inefficiently. The supposed beneficiaries will utterly break the system.
I am in favor of civil disobedience against this socialist healthcare, but whatever I could do in this line is as nothing compared to the damage the users of the program will do on their own, without thinking, and just by the nature of things. This program will not work, and if we can survive the damage it causes, eventually it will destroy itself.
One place to put our energy is in continuously educating those around us. Don’t let anyone shift blame for the distaster which is coming. Teach your kids economics and history. Teach them about the Constitution, and how it should be interpreted.
I will annoy my liberal friends more. After all, they have been annoying me for years, and I generally restrain myself because I am trying to be nice, and I assume that eventually they will grow up. Well, from now one I will be somewhat irritating. No insults, but I will relentlessly put things in perspective.

The GOP Congress could also repeal all the mandates, taxes and other rules that make this contraption ‘work’.
Obama vetoing tax reductions and mandates?
Then the GOP could allow states to run their own systems with ‘opt out’... suddenly half the states will go a different way.
Then gut the huge new entitlements, get illegal immigrants out of it. let private insurance go outside the exchanges....
Before you know it, you’ve gutted the bill like a mackeral.
All it takes is a majority in Congress and the political will.
LETS WIN THE CONGRESS BACK ASAP.
