Funny thing is...if THAT is his legacy he is in a lot of trouble.
Number one, it's falling apart financially. Number two, it has driven health care cost up exponentially.
And most importantly...if the next President is a Republican, it will be repealed and thrown on the trash heap of history.
THEN we will see Mr. Obama shed some REAL tears.  |
I agree that it a law that has some serious flaws and it has run into some problems, but I'm not so sure a republican president would just repeal it.
A little while back I read an article that talked about how many of he republican leaders feel like they can't just repeal it because there are now several million people who have health insurance that didn't have it before Obamacare and they would lose their coverage. Those people would likely be angry and could show their anger by voting democrat. Most of the republican candidates seem to be saying "repeal and replace" I guess it will all come down to what that replacement is.
