Obamacare is crashing right on schedule - the government wants to scrap it and institute a single-payer like they have in England. That was their intent all along. From the Associated Press:
OBAMA ADMINISTRATION CONFIRMS DOUBLE-DIGIT PREMIUM HIKES
Premiums will go up sharply next year under President Barack Obama's health care law, and many consumers will be down to just one insurer, the administration confirmed Monday. That's sure to stoke another "Obamacare" controversy days before a presidential election.
Before taxpayer-provided subsidies, premiums for a midlevel benchmark plan will increase an average of 25 percent across the 39 states served by the federally run online market, according to a report from the Department of Health and Human Services. Some states will see much bigger jumps, others less.
Moreover, about 1 in 5 consumers will only have plans from a single insurer to pick from, after major national carriers such as UnitedHealth Group, Humana and Aetna scaled back their roles.
That was Emanuel's and Gruber's intent all along - build it up into some monstrous unsustainable program, let it crash and out of the rubble, build a centralized government program that will take care of everybody. Right - I have some ocean-front property for sale in Colorado if you believe that.
