U.S. Senator Marco Rubio, a prominent Republican critic of Obamacare, said the skew of enrollment towards older consumers who are more likely to be sick is one of the program's fundamental flaws and proof it should be changed or even repealed.

There: fixed it for you Marco, my boy.

Its more likely to lead to the rapid demise of private health insurance than to a revival of it.

After backing Obamacare, I have no sympathy whatsoever for the insurance industry. Its going to come back to kill them.

Many people are not paying attention and are being manipulated by the Democrats and Press into believing Obamacare is OK and meanwhile the thing is self dissolving.

The people letting government get away with this without protesters camping out at the White House is an indication of the newest generations being less intelligent than those that came before it, or at least lacking rudimentary common sense along with their lack of shame.

Damn math taking over again... All just part of the plan. Single payer is their next step.

I like what Rubio said here. Has he become a freeper? Some of his argument seems that way.

The problem isn't just going to be when people get increased health insurance bills. Weather has had an impact of auto and home insurance. What's left of the middle class is going to be squeezed even more when all of their insurance bills increase. The money to pay for that has to impact other spending. It's hard to imagine what percentage of people's income is gone to technology and insurance before they even begin other spending.

My version of backlash: Health care is not really all that expensive, but health insurance is so expensive it’s no longer worth it. I’m “self insured”.

I’m trying to feel sorry for “Big Insurance”, but I just can’t.

You all went along with this Dog and Pony show a few years ago. Now you need to feel the consequences. The sad thing for you guys is the State Controlled media will not blame Obama and the Rats accordingly as well. Still, you bought into this -hit sandwich. Now eat it!

The insurers got into bed with Obama, and surprise, surprise, they’re going to get screwed!

Relax you brilliant folks running the health insurance companies. Let me spell it out for you. Once the obamacare mandates start kicking in, and people actually feel the pain, the insurance companies will have outlived their usefulness. Single payer will be implemented and health insurance companies will be as important as wooden wagon wheel manufacturers.

I suspect the very upper echelon of management in health insurance companies has already paved the way for a nice landing zone somewhere in government. The rest of the employees in the health insurance business? They get to find new work, but at least they’ll have obamacare.

They did sell out to Obama. I bet that didn’t come easy and I am sure we do not know HOW or WHAT pressure was put on them.

Thing is, either way they are going to lose. I bet they will never see the bailout. Why? Because they are going to get all the blame and people will be opposed to a bailout.

All according to plan. The Risk Corridor was a scam. Par for the course from the O regime.

Obama better speed up his victory lap because there is a steamroller following that’s going to catch up with him

Obama and insurance companies were in bed with eachother from the start. The insurance companies know they are doomed because this obamacare WILL lead to single payer government run healthcare. They want their share of the pie. This is Obamas favorite brand of fascism. He allows the companies to operate in name only so he can blame them for the failures of his regulations. In exchange they can blame regulations, they supported, for higher costs and failed service.

That’s the whole point, guys.

YOU were the ones that made the deal with the fascists.

In fascism, there is a “partnership” between the government and private business. However, only one partner has the legal use of force behind it, and the other partner is there to take the blame for failures.

Guess who you are!
