How Hillary Clinton and the left will move Obamacare into single-payer
The Washington Times ^ | November 4, 2015 | Monica Crowley

If you loathe Obamacare, you’re going to hate what the Democrats have planned next. Their imminent assault on health care will go far beyond the quasi-socialized medicine of Obamacare.

Mrs. Clinton is, of course, the grandmother of socialized medicine. She was pushing for it more than 20 years ago, when Mr. Sanders was an obscure local Vermont pol. And yet, she’s struggling match Mr. Sanders on the issue.

Another irony: A single-payer system was tried — and went down in spectacular flames — in Mr. Sanders’ home state. That, of course, is immaterial to committed leftists, for whom ideological purity and warfare are everything.

Our private health insurance will be more than our mortgage in January. We don’t really have deductibles but still....
Every time we get a rate increase I check CoveredCa website to see their prices for our income and our insurance costs are keeping up neck to neck with them.

Yes, we can only hope Hillary goes down to defeat and our country gets a reprieve from these committed socialists.

Exactly. This has been the best BFD to happen for the health insurance companies for a long time. I am sorry for your plight. We probably will have to declare bankruptcy. Not because of medical bills!! Because of HEALTH INSURANCE BILLS!!! THANKS OBAMA!

I’m so sorry. It hurts us but fortunately so far we’ve been able to afford it. If we just hold out for a little over a year hubby will be eligible for Medicare.

Obamacare cannot be repealed.

What existed before was not viable, and in any event, it has been destroyed. There’s nothing to go back to.

It MUST be repealed.

80 percent of Americans liked their healthcare plans. We need to build a private system so they can get back to liking them.

In 1965, the Congress agreed to pay all claims, without limit, for all useful or potentially useful things, for persons over 65.

This was never viable or sustainable.

Repealing the 1965 healthcare bill would be helpful too, but Obamacare MUST be repealed in full ASAP.
