Democrats still celebrate Obamacare like a smashing success—that’s why they shut down the government, wanting to spend billions more.
But let’s get real. President Obama promised lower costs and more choices—what did we get? Millions lost their plans and doctors they liked, family premiums shot up by thousands, and out-of-pocket costs exploded.
National health spending has nearly doubled, squeezing both taxpayers and working families. And if you’re young and healthy? You paid double or triple, just to subsidize everyone else.
Sure, more people have insurance cards—but for millions in the middle class, Obamacare means higher bills and fewer choices.
Yes, Obamacare is an example of why big bureaucratic government is bad medicine.
