The prices increases were much higher before Obamacare.

But I think we're on the same page here, the best solution is the solution which every single developed country in the world have chosen, including our closest allies Israel, the UK, Canada and Germany. And they are NOT communist no matter how many times people repeat that. Time to give the special interests of big pharma and big insurance the finger and create a Medicare-for-all single payer system. Time to finally invest in the quality of life of the American people and not just the quality of life of CEOs and lobbyists who own America.

No it wasn't. My premiums and deductibles doubled. Any attempts to "fix" it will only make it more expensive. Great move Democrats <sarcasm>. As if we didn't try to warn you but you ignored the warnings as usual.

I know someone who was all for this mess even attacking anyone who spoke out against it. They had insurance before Obamacare but now they can't afford it. I can't help but laugh at them for being so ignorant in believing Obama and Democrats. I have no sympathy for them.

America's health care system is more than twice as expensive as health care systems of other developed countries that ALL have universal health care paid through taxpayer money.

This is the reality. In America, people regularly go bankrupt because of cancer treatments and hospital bills. Children die regularly because parents cant afford treatments. In other civilized countries that would be seen as a huge scandal. But as long as we allow big insurance giants and big pharma to be the financial overlords of our politicians, costs will continue to increase rapidly. Medicare-for-all is the way to go.

Of course they do. Millions of children dont have access to health care because parents dont have insurance and because of costs of medicines and treatments and they die as a result. This is the free market way.

My god if that were true my premiums would be thousands per month. Nice try though.
