Obamacare was not designed to lower medical costs. The first attempts contained such provisions, but those were deleted in an effort to compromise with republicans. So, again, you should be taking credit for the things you are complaining about. Frankly, that's odd to watch.Wrong, the deductibles continued to increase at about the same pace as before the ACA. And sabotage meant to reduce the risk pools was designed specifically to increase those deductibles and premiums, so that wingnut bloggers could craft the deceptive talking points you are regurgutate right now. So, instead of whining about these things, you should be taking credit for them, as you fully support the policies making them worse.Absolute nonsense if one also includes the HYUGE increases in deductibles,
The data is sourced from Kaiser. Here is a longer time span, although it excludes deductibles. If ObabbleCare was supposed to contain cost increases, it is an epic fail - although that was never the intent. The real purpose is to pave the way to single-payer by destroying private health care.

Yeah, no.
Wow man, that's deep.
Indeed. It shows quite succinctly how your claim that ObabbleCare wasn't supposed to lower costs is a Frelling Lie.
