BILL CLINTON ON OBAMACARE: ITS THE CRAZIEST THING IN THE WORLD
Bill Clinton ripped Obamacare during a campaign rally for his wife in Michigan today. Calling Obamacare, a crazy system and the craziest thing in the world, the former president said it doesnt many any sense; the insurance model doesnt work here.
Clinton went on to say that Obamacare works fine for people with modest incomes or who are eligible for government subsidies, but the people that are getting killed in this deal are small business people and individuals who make just a little too much to get any of these subsidies. He added:
Youve got this crazy system where all of a sudden 25 million more people have health care and then the people are out there busting it, sometimes 60 hours a week, wind up with their premiums doubled and their coverage cut in half.
Now he tell us! Why?
Donald Trump has been usually competitive for a Republican nominee in Michigan. By expressing sympathy for the people out there busting it, and by criticizing an unpopular program, Bill Clinton hopes to help his wife with lower-middle class voters in this state.
But Slick Willy is also expressing the view held by most left-liberal Democrats. They see Obamacare as a stop along the way to a system that provides free insurance for everyone the single payer system.
By saying loud and clear what President Obama clearly cant say now and what Hillary must not quite say, the former president seems to be preparing the battlefield for a push by the next Clinton administration to replace Obamacare with single payer. If the insurance companies are ruined by Obamacare, that might help the push.
You can watch Bill Clintons attack on Obamacare here, at the Daily Caller.
Pence and Trump should use this quote ammo in the debates!!
Bill Clinton admitting that Obamacare is “the craziest thing in the world.”
Of course, to the political left, the real solution is to go to “single payer” i.e., completely socialize the system.
Need to put the screws to Shrillary.....
Oh Please.....the Clintons want SINGLE PAYER and ill do ANYTHING to get it just so they can CONTROL ALL OF US!
So they can replace it with “free healthcare for all”
Where my free helfcare be at?
And while you’re in the hospital, you can get a free college degree.
Bill is just getting back at Obama for telling him to hurry up and get on the plane the other day, when Bill was busy glad handing a bit too long.
While you eat your free lunch.
And call your bff on your free phone.
And Hillary personally lobbied within her own party to get this passed.
Didn’t Hussein take yuge credit for Commiecare just a few days ago?
What’s crazy is that the American people voted for the Bat-Eared Bolshevik not once, but twice. And if they elect Hillary next month they are going to get exactly what they deserve.
So they can replace it with free healthcare for all
I was amazed how many people actually though that is what Obamacare would be when it was first proposed. NEVER, NEVER underestimate the stupidity of Americans.
“And while youre in the hospital, you can get a free college degree.”
And that degree will be worth...almost...as much as you pay for it.

And with the mass importation of the Third World “the stupidity of Americans” will increase exponentially.
I think you are exactly right.
I suppose partial birth abortion would prevent future health problems.
He was probably more mad that people wanted to shake Bill’s hand more than his.
I had not heard of that incident- was it on FR?
If it was not on FR I probably missed it
Just another softball to knock out of the park that Trump is Handed,will he swing and miss again,?
The Obamacare death spiral started the day the bill was passed.
Insurers are dropping out of the exchange right and left. Health care premiums are going through the roof (just got my renewal letter-45% increase), hospitals are closing and doctors are not taking new patients and insurers will face reality now that the risk corridor payments are done.
An insurance risk pool that consists highly of people who require expensive care is a recipe for disaster.
Rats sold everyone a pack of lies. I can’t believe this hasn’t been a major issue in this campaign. Maybe Trump is waiting for the renewal letters to be received this month before hitting it hard.
I don’t know how businesses manage to offer health insurance benefits any longer.
