If Obamacare were repealed with immediate effect, 2/3 of the hospitals in America would close within 90 days.

Really? Maybe you'd care to explain/support this ridiculous claim?

Most hospitals have less than 60 days cash on hand. Many have less than 30.

Most hospitals have zero to 0.5% margin (revenue/expense). An immediate end to Obamacare would mean a surge in uninsured (non-paying) customers of 15-25%. The insurance cash flow from Obamacare has kept lots of hospitals afloat.

Obamacare has hollowed out and then destroyed what existed before.
