It took a few years, but once the people of Canada all began to benefit from universal medicare in the 1960s, following its introduction in Saskatchewan, a curious effect began to be noticed in elections across the country -- conservative parties couldn't get elected anymore unless they stopped yapping about dismantling it.
Republicans are going to experience the same thing, sooner or later. Right now lots of Republican governors have been yapping about how they're going to get rid of Obamacare.
They'll learn.
