Thanks, Obama! Turns Out the 'Affordable Care Act' Made Healthcare MORE EXPENSIVE Than Food, Housing

We had to pass Obamacare in 2010 because it was the only thing that would stop healthcare costs from spiraling out of control.

Except it didn't.

Now, Americans spend more on healthcare than housing and food:

Remember that the entire purpose of Obamacare (passed in 2010) was supposedly to reverse this trend. pic.twitter.com/hVlIrzmBkP

Just amazing.

And this is happening while federal spending on healthcare has also exploded… pic.twitter.com/CvivefYyrj

These two things are related: whenever the government subsidizes something, it gets more expensive.

Just like education.

No. Obamacare did nothing to address healthcare costs. It only transferred costs progressively so some people paid less and others paid lots more.

Men -- single men -- were required to buy insurance plans with maternity coverage so they could pay for some woman's OB-GYN.

Because 'fairness' or something.

Supposedly.

The real purpose of Obamacare was to break the system irreparably so that Clinton could come in and push a Universal Single Payer setup on the country as "the only way to fix things".

If she had won in 2016 we'd all be on the Canadian Health System by now.

THIS.

That's the endgame here: socialized medicine.

So the same Leftists who are cheering on the deaths from the Texas floods can withhold healthcare from people who vote for Republicans.

Obamacare was written by the insurance companies and they've done very well with it. Meanwhile Median Household Income is $80k and a family health insurance premium is $26k.
