Obamacare is "working" dontcha know, except for that pesky affordability thing. Sylvia Burwell came to Newark today, to shill for her boss's signature statutory sensation, and she inadvertantly told the truth.
Burwell acknowledged that affordability is still a high hurdle for many, however. Affordability, whether in the cost of the premium, the deductible, co-payments or co-insurance "is one of the fundamental issues" keeping people from getting health insurance, she said.
"We need to work on putting downward pressure on those costs," Burwell said.
So, a fundamental issue with Obamacare is affordability. Even though its official name is The Affordable Care Act.
Gee, a cynic might think they lied to us about that "affordable" thing.
Obamacare has done nothing to constrain costs. In fact, it has added costs to virtually everyone's health insurance bills for coverages none of us ever wanted or needed. The point is for guys like me to subsidize health care for layabouts, feminuts, and illegal aliens. And with a 2015 premium increase of 28%, I can assure you, I'm subsidizing more than my "fair share."
I'm not alone. I can point you to thousands of people in the same boat. We're paying more money for crappier coverage. Higher deductibles. Shrunken networks. Fewer doctors. Unrenewable prescriptions.
It's deliberate. And if we don't stand up and yell "STOP," it's never gonna end. The Obamunists are determined to redistribute our hard-earned dollars to their voting bloc, because holding on to power is their only goal. The Affordable Care Act was never meant to reduce costs or make health care "affordable." Its only purpose was to create havoc in the health insurance marketplace so that government could step in to regulate our choices.
Mission accomplished.
They're from the government and they're here to help.
Alas, vestiges of freedom linger. Liberty isn't (yet) a dirty word. We are at
a crossroads. Obamacare, or America, must die. We can't have both. The Founding
Fathers chose independence. We must not countenance nullification of their
vision.
