This takes Obamacare down giving it away for free to losers is now destroying itself, because I think the law might be that if Obamacare is more tha 8% of your income you are NOT REQUIRED TO GET IT.
That right there is a crash and burn.
That’s my situation. :-)
We’ve not had hc insurance since January of 2014. Saved a ton and get HUGE discounts on what little health care we need.
Obamacare will not go down that easily.
As for its costs to government - we have a Federal Reserve which can monetize all the government debt it needs, print money, and manipulate interest rates. There’s always more money for progressive government schemes.
As to individuals, the middle class will continue to get hammered.
Besides, when enough people complain and want to abandon Obamacare, the next obvious step will be total nationalization / single-payer.
