Seems like you partly answered your own. The uncertainty allows all sides to embrace worst case scenarios.
Yup. And I think both are flawed. Sure, the law has big foundational flaws but its stable, just inherently inflationary. Both sides want it to fail, one to say "see it sucked" and the other "you dumb asses killed it lets get Medicare for all". My broader point is to question the hyperbole on both sides. The pubs likely can't kill it so will chip away at it (most of the bog levers have been pulled) and the left will scream and yell its going to kill p0eo0ple, yet folks remain enrolled. I'll also go on record saying the Hobby Lobby ruling will largely have no impact.
What we should examine is the cost. No one wants to talk about this one.
