Former President Bill Clinton attacked President Barack Obama’s signature health care legislation Monday, calling it a “crazy system” that “doesn’t make any sense” during a Michigan campaign event for Hillary.

“It doesn’t many any sense. The insurance model doesn’t work here,” Clinton said about the government-run marketplaces Obamacare set up. Clinton said that Obamacare works fine for people with “modest” incomes or who are eligible for government subsidies, or Medicare. But he added that, “the people that are getting killed in this deal are small business people and individuals who make just a little too much to get any of these subsidies.”

WATCH:

“You’ve got this crazy system where all of a sudden 25 million more people have health care and then the people are out there busting it, sometimes 60 hours a week, wind up with their premiums doubled and their coverage cut in half,” Clinton said. “It’s the craziest thing in the world.” (RELATED: Minnesota Hiking Obamacare Premiums At Least 50% To Avoid ‘Collapse’)

WATCH:

This isn’t the first time Bill Clinton has knocked Obama on the campaign trail. In March, Clinton said, “If you believe we can rise together, if you believe we’ve finally come to the point where we can put the awful legacy of the last eight years behind us and the seven years before that, where we were practicing trickle-down economics, then you should vote for her.”

Former president Bill Clinton appeared to take a shot at President Obama's signature health care legislation during a campaign stop in Michigan on Monday, calling it a "crazy system" that "doesn't make any sense."

Clinton was in Flint, Michigan for a campaign event for his wife and was on the topic of government-run marketplaces under ObamaCare when he made the remarks, The Daily Caller reported.

"It doesn't make any sense. The insurance model doesn't work here," he said.

He added that ObamaCare "works fine" for people with "modest" incomes eligible for government subsidies but that "the people that are getting killed in this deal are small business people and individuals who make just a little too much to get any of these subsidies," the Daily Caller reported.

“You’ve got this crazy system where all of a sudden 25 million more people have health care and then the people are out there busting it, sometimes 60 hours a week, wind up with their premiums doubled and their coverage cut in half,” Clinton said. “It’s the craziest thing in the world.”

Video: Bill Clinton Trashes Obamacare At Event, Calls It ‘Crazy System.’

Former President Bill Clinton attacked President Barack Obama’s signature health care legislation Monday, calling it a “crazy system” that “doesn’t make any sense” during a Michigan campaign event for Hillary.

“It doesn’t many any sense. The insurance model doesn’t work here,” Clinton said about the government-run marketplaces Obamacare set up.

But he added that, “the people that are getting killed in this deal are small business people and individuals who make just a little too much to get any of these subsidies.”
 
Bill said, "“The people that are getting killed in this deal are small businesspeople and individuals who make just a little too much to get any of these subsidies,” the former president added." There is the fix: subsidize small businesses for health care and remove the income limits. Not hard.

And watch: that is exactly what the House GOP will propose next spring.
 
Bill Clinton: Obamacare a 'crazy system' where small businesses are 'getting killed'



Can you stop laughing long enough to watch the video?

"The people who are getting killed in this deal are small business people and individuals who make just a little too much to get any of these subsidies. Why? Because they're not organized and they don't have any bargaining power with insurance companies and they're getting whacked," Clinton said.

And what does he offer as a solution?

Bill Clinton is the psychopath who burned 80 americans alive at waco but at least he is not the radical america-hater that obama is. Good to see dems telling the truth about obamacare.

Bill Clinton bashes Obamacare as ‘crazy system’ while campaigning for Hillary Clinton

oct 3 2016 Former President Bill Clinton stumped for his wife’s campaign on Monday in Michigan by deeming the Affordable Care Act a “crazy system.”
President Obama’s signature piece of legislation was framed as nonsensical public policy that punishes middle-class Americans by doubling their health-insurance premiums, according to video footage of the event.

“You’ve got this crazy system where all of a sudden 25 million more people have health care and then the people are out there busting it, sometimes 60 hours a week, wind up with their premiums doubled and their coverage cut in half,” Mr. Clinton told voters. “It’s the craziest thing in the world.”
The footage was immediately posted on the internet by the Republican Party, which has made similar critics of the industry overhaul since its inception. Not a single Republican in the House or Senate voted in favor of the Affordable Care Act when it was passed in 2010.

“The people that are getting killed in this deal are small businesspeople and individuals who make just a little too much to get any of these subsidies,” the former president added.
 
Remarkably while stumping for Hillary - Bill Clinton describes Obamacare, that Hillary supported, as a crazy, messed up system that doesn't work. 25 million people may have been added as "insured" - but people who were covered all along are seeing doubled premiums with less covereage than ever before.

Obamacare is a nightmare. Hillary - will keep it.

What happens when Hillary is in office and the 3am phone call comes in. Does Bill just roll over and say "good luck Dear" and then go back to sleep?
 
She did fully support it. I think the aging rapist just got a bit confused. He's an old perv now. He's losin it.

No...Bill has a tendency to slip up and say how he really feels from time to time...and why Democrats clinch their teeth everytime he makes a speech.

He told the truth
 
yep. KY obamacare is now a monopoly. Sad. All insurance companies that dropped out cited $$$
 
What did you expect from a plan hatched at the Heritage Foundation. Look, americans don't want a healtcare system that works, i.e., one like the rest of the modern world has embraced. We've decided we want the most expensive system in the world with shittier outcomes. And in return for that, we get to pretend that we don't subsidize anything. HeritageFoundationCare did not cause or remedy anything. The american public has the healthcare system they asked for.

No. Just no. You must be a teenager.
Americans want an affordable system that works...we had that for decades. And admittedly, it was unions in the 60's and 70's that gave it to us all.
