Former President Barack Obama said Wednesday it is "aggravating" to see the Republican-led Congress continue with its attempts to overhaul Obamacare, efforts he suggested would inflict "real human suffering" on the American people.
"When I see people trying undo that hard-won progress, for the 50th or 60th time, with bills that would raise costs or reduce coverage or roll back protections for older Americans or people with pre-existing conditions — the cancer survivor, the expectant mom, or the child with autism, or asthma for whom coverage once again would be unattainable — it is aggravating," Obama said during a keynote address at the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation's "Goalkeepers" event.

I figure that if you are aggravating Obama or even pissing him off, you are doing something right (no pun intended).
I am a 58-year old, low income Floridian.
All the PPACA did for me was to ensure that premiums for me were totally unaffordable.
$150/month -> $500/month
I hope it so... and I hope it get worse.
“coverage once again would be unattainable”
Old way:
get a job with insurance ->future conditions covered
wait 18 months
pre-existing condition(s) covered
I’m so glad the Republican Congress actually accomplished something.
“...the PPACA did for me was to ensure that premiums for me were totally unaffordable...”
Obama is not candid enough to ever look at any imperfections of this pet power grab. In his heart of heart he doesn’t care about people but he loves his namesake scam. He loves the Obama of Obamacare.
“...he suggested would inflict “real human suffering” on the American people.”
Unlike 8 years with him in the White House.
Obamacare is what is aggravating! Not to mention costly burdensome and down right asinine!
He (Obama) lies like a rug.
“asthma”
The Brits pay about $10 for an inhaler.
Congress should simply allow asthma inhalers that can be sold in the EU to be sellable here too.
In fact, Congress should allow almost all EU generics and biosimilars to be sellable in the USA. Congress should require the FDA to make a list of all of the EU approved ones that should be sellable here and then make a second list of the ones the FDA thinks shouldn’t be sold here along with the reason(s) why.
Like any other Prez who finished their term, “seldom seen, seldom heard. This ass needs to get lost, we don’t like him and don’t care what he says.
They will not do that. They bet billions from drug makers over here. That is another reason why they are so expensive. Kick backs.
You are exactly right. 0bama’s goal in all of this was to be sure that the needed democrat voters are provided with free health insurance/free health care. Seems to be happening.
We are the “silent majority”, I fear, who cannot afford to actually get any medical care after paying the premiums, co-pays, and deductibles.
Hey, 0bungwad, if you like your lies you can keep your lies!
Dude, you got off light. Try $850 a month and rising.
Thanks, Osucka.
we wouldn’t want to aggravate little Barry boy, would we?
let’s ELIMINATE Obamacare so that the Republicans can’t ‘revise’ it
