Do they realize how this destroys the Obamacare propaganda?

Obamacare has increased medical insurance costs by billions and billions and is so far beyond what the liberals promised that even the Daily KOS is on the scandal.

    After reading the article and the original CNBC article, I can still believe Obamacare is better for America than doing nothing or implementing anything the Republicans proposed in 2010. Let us assume the facts are correct, there was increase in admin. expenses. There are too many unanswered to believe this is bad for Obamacare. Will the new admin costs translate into higher premiums than otherwise. Using the state of MA as example, the state show health cost rise but the premiums grow at a slow rate than other states. Insurance companies offset the rise in costs by the increase in policyholders paying a premium.

    I realize that, and it's sad. Your link also provides a solution to the problem. Medicare for all!

    "Obamacare has been effective in reducing costs—primarily through Medicare. And the competition is helping to keep premiums reasonable, for the most part. But it's still an inefficient way to deliver universal healthcare. Centralized, single-payer healthcare has alway clearly been the cheaper alternative. That means transitioning to Medicare for everyone."

    You must be a racist to fight Obamacare.
