Bottom line and I forgot believe this, even Obamacare was designed to fail itself. Therefore, Eben left as is, I believe it would be gone within a few years and replaced with a government ran single payer system.

The system we had was broke and needed to be fixed. The trouble getting individuals with preexisting conditions covered was near impossible. The number percentage of people that do not have what was considered a disqualifying preexisting condition was dwindling rapidly. On the other hand, fixing the financing/insurance part without adequately addressing the skyrocketing cost of health care is like putting a bandaid on a gunshot wound.

This.
Obama care shattered to old system. Repealing it now would not put Humpty Dumpty together again. I'm sure free market forces would eventually bring things back in line. It might take a while, but also might be worth the wait.
I agree that that the skyrocketing cost of health care was/is a major part of the problem. It may not be popular with many, but I've got a two word solution for that.
Tort Reform.

Or, since it slithered under the door of the bamboozled Americans, is it a done deal without recourse?
