Obamacare; as Michael J. Fox once said, "Nobody can do things as well as the US government!"

This Is What Government-Run Healthcare Looks Like  "It went just as well as one would expect an undertaking of this magnitude to go, especially when it’s handled by the government."

Chip Bok; Government Collapse  "The majority of Americans don’t like ObamaCare but they don’t want it to collapse. They don’t want to risk a government shutdown either. Republicans hate it but are divided over risking a shutdown.
"Charles Krauthammer, and Brit Hume are among conservatives who thinks it’s unlikely President Obama will sign a bill abolishing ObamaCare. They have a point.
"Here’s a column by Daniel Henninger betting that Obamacare will be the straw that breaks the donkey’s back, causing the progressive agenda to collapse. Hmm."

Jimmy Kimmel asks people whether they prefer “Obamacare” or the “Affordable Care Act.”


Daniel Henninger: Let ObamaCare Collapse ; Congress can't kill the entitlement state. Only the American people can.
Enacted with zero Republican votes, ObamaCare is the solely owned creation of the Democrats' belief in their own limitless powers to fashion goodness out of legislated entitlements. Sometimes social experiments go wrong. In the end, the only one who supported Frankenstein was Dr. Frankenstein. The Democrats in 2014 should by all means be asked relentlessly to defend their monster.

Republicans and conservatives, instead of tilting at the defunding windmill, should be working now to present the American people with the policy ideas that will emerge inevitably when ObamaCare's declines. The system of private insurance exchanges being adopted by the likes of Walgreens suggests a parallel alternative to ObamaCare may be happening already.
