3. Wouldn't this reinforce the position that employers won't be supplying employee benefits?

They nuke BC. We nuke pacemakers. They nuke something else. We nuke something beyond that to retaliate. In a short time the employer is completely decoupled from all health care.

In a short time the employer is completely decoupled from all health care.

SINGLE PAYER NOW

5. That would be another roll of the dice.

If this "nuclear war" occurs while the GOP holds one or both houses of Congress and/or the WH the end result may not be as rosy as you imagine. The effective destruction of the ACA without a single-payer replacement at the ready means people will still need insurance. That will mean the default re-emergence of private insurance. That would be a whole new can of political worms and by that time healthcare reform fatigue may well have set in.

I'm not telling anyone what to do or not to do except 1) "game it out" and 2) assume the other side is also playing the exact same game. I think that is a prudent course of action in any endeavor.

7. Are you saying you have no concerns with effectively destroying the ACA while

the GOP possesses the ability to keep single-payer from passing?

That's very strange. Very, very strange.
