Now that the dust of the election is settling, what can those of us opposed to PPACA do to fight it? Is de-funding a realistic approach? What are the various states up to in terms of resisting the federal ambitions?

I just found out, the deciding judge on the Supreme Court didn't just let it pass.
He actually CHANGED text so the wording would make the insurance mandates a TAX.
That is not proper legal procedure or jurisdiction of the Court. The proper way would be to reject it, and it would have to go all the way through Congress again to rewrite it, since it passed not as a tax paid to govt but as requiring people to buy private insurance.
Are there any legal groups fighting this?
Of course, the supporters of the bill are not going to challenge the Court for amending the bill for them. It is clearly outside of judicial power to do that, from what I was told.
Can this be confirmed? And what judicial or govt watchdog groups are possibly fighting this legally?
Heck, if the bill can just be amended manually, without going through Congress, why not change opt out to opt in?

You could start by taking financial responsibility for your own health care but that's exactly what the rw's are against.

I'm not sure what "rw's" are against, but I'm opposed to PPACA precisely because it takes away financial responsibility for our health care.

You really don't know anything about ObamaCare, do you. If you did, you would know that you must buy your own health insurance unless you cannot afford it. You would also know that you don't have to buy health insurance even if you CAN afford it and have the option instead, of showing financial responsibility.
IOW, you must take financial responsibility for your own health care insurance ....
Like other rw's, you hear what you want to hear and ignore what doesn't feed your agenda.

Whatever. I wasn't really interested in more of your corporatist shilling anyway. I'm looking to discuss plans to thwart the sellout
luddly, you keep going on and on about 'facts', yet you've still not cited one aspect of PPACA that I'm wrong about. I know, I challenge you every time you go there, and each time you skulk away. In particular, you ignore the corporatist nature of PPACA, consoling yourself with vague promises that it will be 'fixed' sometime in the future. Really?
insurance companies are looking for a nice raise. The government is controlled by corporate America.
I go on about facts because that's all that interests me. I've posted links in the past and the rw's studiously avoid them. I now post very few links concerning ACA. It is you who has made the wild-eyed claims, all based on ignorance, and it is YOU who has not proven your opinions to be true. Just the opposite - your posts prove that you have not read anything more enlightening or fact-based than fux, britebart, dredge, lushbo, beck.
There are a few states that are going to opt out of the mandated exchanges, which is going to cause massive problems since people that participate in them are not eligible for federal insurance subsidies. There are also states that are opting out of the Medicare expansion provisions, this site has a pretty good rundown of which states are doing what.

I am not sure if we can count the trend toward part time employees as part of the battle against Obamacare, but it is happening, and it is a direct result of the requirement to provide insurance to employees that are working more than 30 hours.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. So, you got nothing? Seriously, you keep responding with screeds referring to "the facts" and accusing me of not understanding PPACA, yet you've consistently failed to point out anything that I'm factually wrong about.
If you think we have some key disagreement on the facts, then speak up. What is it? I assume you haven't answered yet because the facts, despite your droning to the contrary, aren't really in question. It's our subjective evaluation of the trade-off at the core of PPACA. Some of us aren't willing to trade off fundamental liberty for temporary (and questionable) promises of security.
