Frankly that's what I expect to happen, and I think that's by design.

The purpose of this health care law is to implode the health insurance industry forcing the government to step in and nationalize the industry and bam, overnight and without voting for it we'll get socialized medicine. Once the people are dependent on the state for their very lives you'll never see small government, pro-liberty constitutionalists in power again. Ever. Period.


Folks I think we have to face the fact that Obama has already "fundamentally transformed this country" beyond the point of no return and the only way to roll this crap back is with some sort of "reset button" (be that a Constitutional Convention or a dissolution of the union ... a con-con will end up making things worse since the progressives will write all sorts of new positive rights and eliminate many rights related to liberty, and secession and/or dissolution isn't going to go any smoother or peacefully than it did last time it was tried).

America is dead ... the corpse just hasn't started stinking yet.
