Depends on how you define "make it work".

They don't regulate large group insurance rates.

What he says and what he does are totally unrelated. Did you really think he would tell the truth? Or that he would morph into an honest person?

I blame the senators and congressmen who passed the bill without reading it >.<

You can't add a lot of new ObamaCare mandated coverages (kids up to age 26, etc) and NOT increase the cost of health insurance. So, somebody has to pay more... a lot more.

Its beyond garbage of an argument to assume those issues weren't at play when insurance premium rates were rising on average at over 9%/year. Or, perhaps a rather demonstrative exhibit of being clueless.

I don't assume public forums to be a place for people to visit to only shed tears and move on, expecting no response with facts that goes against their personal beliefs and claims.

You can file a complaint. Many times commissioners have squashed large increases in premiums, Independent and group. However, if you live in one of those "I don't give a damn states" well, I'll agree, don't waste your time. Usually the commissioner is the worthless brother-in-law to the governor.
