It won't. The Republicans are perfectly fine with letting hundreds of thousands, maybe millions die for lack of health care. That's how psychopaths roll. They have no conscience or guilt about this.
Remember the GOP debates? The audience cheered at the idea of allowing a cancer patient to die because he can't afford to pay his bills or afford insurance. That's how fucked up and twisted they are.
They want our country to be transformed into their pet banana republic. They want us all poor and desperate. And if we all have relatives or friends suffering and dying, so much the better for them. Keeps us all scared shitless and coming to those $.50/hr jobs and keeping our heads down rather than daring to challenge the oligarchs.
The only people in the new order who would have good health care are the politicians, the 1% rich elites, and the super-militarized police they're paying to keep the rest of us from getting uppity.
If ACA is struck down, we'll lose health care for decades, and it may take a revolution to change things.
