The Affordable Care Act is not so Affordable Now

[Dagosa]

The ACA tripled the cost of my health insurance in less than a year....

Yup. That’s under republican administration. Good point.

You weak minded fool....it doesn't matter that it was a Republican administration what matters is that the ACA was the law during that time and directly responsible for the ride in healthcare cost.

Jo

You didn’t notice. The gop made lots of adjustments to make the ACA MORE. expensive. Deal with it.
Who‘s the weak minded fool ?

Who is talking about the GOP.....weak minded fool?? .... they took a Marxist manifesto disguised as a health care bill and made it worse???...So what? What does that point do for your argument? If what you really mean to say is that they identified the dead wood and the free loaders well then maybe you would have a point.

There is no real way to get rid of this thing even if the SCOTUS changes the nature of it. The economic tentacles are too deep and have penetrated the system it too many ways to remove it now...Obama and his team knew goddamed well and good that once it was released it could never really be retracted....it has to fail outright before it will go away and that is exactly what it will do.

And Joe Biden does understand this? Those who tell him what to say are stupider than he is! Trump has nothing do with why the ACA is no longer affordable. The Insurance Companies s have been dropping out for some time. Some states have very few of them. The Insurance rates are going up because theirs cost keeping going up. They have been increasing Deductibles and Copayments every year. Get educated and stop thinking as a delusional Democrat!

It’s not rocket science for educated people. Maybe republicans don’t know how private insure works ? The only thing that keeps profits up and cost down, is to include healthy people on the same roles as sick people. Dah. Cutting the mandate drops the enrollment of healthier people. Everyone left, pays more.

BCBS is in nearly every state of the union..
insurance companies drop out for one reason only. It’s less profitable. Private insurance company decisions are driven by profit. Is this a new revelation ? The overhead for Medicare is less then 1/4 that of private insurance. Why ? It’s non profit. That’s a new revelation.

Please educate yourself. Insurance Companies (all of them that are involved in the ACA) are REQUIRED to spend 80 cents of EVERY premium dollar collected on clams. If they don't their insureds get a refund check. This means hat ALL overhead must be able to be covered by 20 cents on the dollar.

If the Affordable Care Act was working, the Democrats would still be calling it "Obamacare".

The ACA is a liberal program, the fact that they designed it to fail if they were put out of office is no points against the Republicans. After all, Trump proposed his Trump Care plan but no D's voted for it. Under Trump Care, people would have tremendous care, with unlimited choice and at almost unbelievable savings.

But the D's nor John McCain were interested because it was a Trump plan.

Nope. As soon as the mandate was dropped, it became Trump care. It increased the costs significantly.
Tell us where Trump care is. Until a Healthcare bill is submitted to Congress, it does not exist.

If course, you guys think trickle down works too.

Considering That Medicare runs in a 2 cent per dollar overhead, 20 cents is a lot. That’s why Medicare for all much cheaper.

Seriously ?
“The U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the mandate was constitutional in 2012, but in December 2017, Congress passed the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which eliminated the individual mandate penalty, effective January 1, 2019.”
it was signed into law by TRUMP.

Thank Obamacare for the Rise of the Uninsured | CMS

The U.S. Census Bureau released their annual report on health insurance coverage in the United States which shows the number of uninsured Americans rose from 2017 to 2018.

That's why it's now called the UCA; Unaffordable Careless Atrocity.
