The self-motivated population in those states would find a way to retain quality healthcare for reasonable price while all the Obama sheep wait months if not years to get some bureaucrats permission for a major operation. Where there's a will - there is always a way. Half the country hasn't swallowed the great 0's bilge.

Kenneth, let them opt out of the program. Then, we will be closer to a single pay system which will bargain with insurance companies as well as driving out the waste in the healthcare system. This should keep the cost of insurance from raising its rates at the current rate of healthcare. We already see the digitization of the healthcare system to avoid the duplication of multiple test. Barnes Hospital, St. Louis, has computerized its system so that when one of the 1000 +/- physicians request at test all of the other physicians can retrieve the test rather than request a duplicate test. I expect this approach to be nationalized much like what I understand the VA's digital system has in operation.
