Big government is never the answer to big questions. Obamacare was rammed down the throats of the American people by Senate Democrats, who voted 100% approval against 0% Republican Senate votes, in spite of the fact that polls of the American people showed a decisive rejection of the plan. Democrats themselves admitted they did not know what was in the plan, how it would work, and what it would cost. Subsequent disclosures show that Obama and his administration lied about what it would cost, and that the only way they could get buy-in was to lie. The blatant misrepresentation by Obama stating that American families would save $2,500 per year in medical premiums and that families would be able to keep their doctors and their medical plans if they preferred was also recognized from the very beginning to be false, and should be a prosecutable offense, given the pain, suffering and cost it has caused the American people.
The problem is that once a government program is launched, no matter how ineffective or how big a failure, it only grows. Obamacare is even worse in that the cost my be so high and the failure so deep that it will collapse under its own weight. Of course rather than letting the free market repair the damage, you can be sure that Democrats will double down and insist that what is really needed is a single payer system where the people have no choice and government will control all health care in this country. We already see with the scandal plagued Veterans Hospital disaster that government is definitely not the answer if we want affordable and effective medical care, but that will not change Democrats pushing for a state run solution.

Thank that Liar obama !!!!!!!!!!
wrong again !
Three years in a row:
11.9% increase
12.7% increase
And this years they are looking for an additional 12.5%
So I can hep subsidize the illegals and anchor babies !!!
37.1%. So much for affordable healthcare!!
Hillary loves that
Just what the people need, better get use to it because it will get worse, people need to open their eyes, we are in big trouble
Saw this coming.
I thought this was supposed to be the affordable care act. 60% raise in premiums is not affordable.
They knew it was coming and planned for it.
Thanks Obama and all his followers! Too bad you don’t have to have the same health-care that you made law!
Well you know the non obamacare purchasers are screwed as well, my insurance increased $600.00 this year alone.
