If the Republicans gain total control of Congress, you can be damned sure the SUBSIDIES for the mandates will disappear or be scaled back, but the mandates won't. That means the working poor and middle-class are really going to feel the hurt of having to carry the full weight of the private insurance burden.

So it does still give a good reason to vote for Democrats this election cycle, just so that a bad thing can't be made worse.
