I think people are falling into the trap that Obamacare was meant to help people.

It was a government power grab meant to pay off insurance companies and hospitals in urban areas. Even if the person’s finances are wreaked, they have limited the exposure of hospitals to non-paying patients.

This will be like crack to the hospitals that had to always make up the difference when someone couldn’t pay. Even when the bill is 100k now, the exposure is limited to 6.7k.

Thus, hospitals will be come dependent on these regulations and support Democrats to keep these laws in place.

When this scab of a law is pulled, it has to be completely removed or the hospitals will need a huge price hike to make up the difference because there are thousands of other mandates that took this money, like electronic records, additional staff, etc...

More than a power grab, obamacare was a monstrous increase in welfare.
