Can we still kill Obamacare?

I am disgusted that Obamacare was instituted, forced, before any other possible cures were ever explored. I find that deplorable. I think there are myriads of ways to insure every American other than through the most incompetent group of people in America - our politicians. In addition to that, paying for someone else's insurance should be a voluntary thing..............not a government mandate with orders in one hand and a pistol in the other.
Assuming that Obamacare will die a gasping breath if the gods are with Americans, there may be better solutions to health care coverage for those who cannot afford it.
I'm just tossing this idea out to see what reactions it receives.
What if you would never have to worry again about receiving quality health care?
What if we could get government TOTALLY out of our health care and handle it strictly and totally by private citizens? What if the government would have absolutely NO access to your health or your health care?
What if, instead of PETA or Media Matters or the Cancer Society or the Lung Association or any number of organizations that exist on donations, getting millions of dollars from donations, some of those millions of dollars instead went to needy families for health insurance? I would think health care would be as important to donors as are political foundations and organizations, wouldn't you?
What if insurance companies KNEW they would get every American's business - no medicaid, no Obamacare? Might they lower their prices?
What if individuals and/or groups adopted less fortunate families - paid for them to have regular health insurance?
What if thousands of people could afford, financially, to pay for less fortunate people's health insurance, would place no restrictions on type of coverage, and would agree to the recipient doing the purchasing of the insurance so that no one would ever know the patient was unable to pay his own way?
This is not totally thought out, and I don't know if it is possible, but I believe it could be a great boon to the American discourse and a great way to cut government meddling into a most private issue.
If we could get government meddling severely lessened on doctors, hospitals, nurses, nursing homes, pharmacies, etc, it just might be that our costs would be less - and insurance companies might help us in this matter.
Obamacare is NOT a good answer, my friends. It is vile. It gives bureaucrats almost total control over our life and death issues - and that is ALWAYS a bad idea whether or not Progressives believe it.
I merely want to get some conversation going to replace the hated Obamacare once it proves to the imbeciles that it is a vile thing and not an answer any American should want.

Regarding the monies for research, as long as it comes from private sources, I say that is personal preference. As far as big pharma goes, NO public funding. There's lots of money in searching for cures; not so much after one is found....
Obamacare is nothing less than an attempt to impose a “single payer” system on America’s diversity. Its advocates admit that it is the first step toward universal health coverage in a system that is federally-funded and federally-managed. That is a recipe for disaster. Even Canada is backing away from government-mandated health coverage as more and more Canadians flock across the borders to New York and other states to get life-saving operations that have been rationed in their own country. ONE SIZE DOES NOT FIT ALL! The Democrats argue that Obamacare will dramatically reduce costs, but in fact these alleged future cost savings simply shift the costs to individuals and small businesses by driving up the cost of private health care premiums, and to the states by dumping millions of uninsured Americans into state Medicaid programs. (14% of Marylanders today are on Medicaid, and that number will grow dramatically as Obama...

So the best I can say is to eliminate not just the government interference in our medical care but to eliminate the insurance companies.
