Ask any geezer how s/he feels about their Medicare. They love it....mainly because there's no insurance company BS involved. EVERYONE gets treated the same as it's one plan.
Start with Medicare and Medicaid (for poor) and bring everyone into these programs.
It ain't rocket science.
They love it but there are a s*** load of doctors out there that won't accept it.
Insurance companies sets the premiums and deductibles to make a profit. You think they will willingly take a loss? They will jack it up as high as possible to please their shareholders.
Exactly! And that is what is happening now. People are dropping out because they can't afford the premiums. The insurance companies are jacking up the price on the people still trying to keep insurance. And then they can't afford it so they drop off. Insurance companies raise prices again, more people drop insurance.
Go flush your commode, see the water going down. You're looking at he Obamacare law going down the toilet because people can't afford it and they are forced to lose their insurance and insurance companies can't keep taking these huge losses.

Yeah and I ask you to think past your nose for once. A free market driven healthcare system will not work. Because of simply a profit motive. The solution is government run insurance.
We've tried deregulation (pre-ACA). Regulation (ACA). Both times they failed as the free market fails to provide decent coverage at an affordable price. What else is there left to do?
Well if Obamacare keeps going as is, a lot of people who are struggling to pay these high premiums will drop out (as many already have) and it will crash and burn anyway.

And you don't have a clue about "government run" anything, they always screw things up just like they did healthcare. There were much better ways but no, they had to "take over".
He's keeping his promise to mess them over. I kinda doubt that they get it.
