I have to respectfully disagree. Once a government rule/law/bill is passed or implemented the chances of it getting pulled back are nearly nil. To use your example, the PTB will just ratchet down further and say that this proves that we need a single-payer system.

If it does self-destruct, it's a question of how much it takes out when it blows up. Sometimes the effect is the same as the originally feared consequences.
