ObamaCare heading towards collapse

It was always the Democrats' plan for ObamaCare to collapse once Barack Obama was out of office.

From AP:
Premiums will go up sharply next year under President Barack Obama's health care law, and many consumers will be down to just one insurer, the administration confirmed Monday. That's sure to stoke another "Obamacare" controversy days before a presidential election.

Before taxpayer-provided subsidies, premiums for a midlevel benchmark plan will increase an average of 25 percent across the 39 states served by the federally run online market, according to a report from the Department of Health and Human Services. Some states will see much bigger jumps, others less.

Moreover, about 1 in 5 consumers will only have plans from a single insurer to pick from, after major national carriers such as UnitedHealth Group, Humana and Aetna scaled back their roles.

"Consumers will be faced this year with not only big premium increases but also with a declining number of insurers participating, and that will lead to a tumultuous open enrollment period," said Larry Levitt, who tracks the health care law for the nonpartisan Kaiser Family Foundation.
Obama famously lied when he said "If you like your health care plan you can keep it." He also pledged that the average family would save $2,500 annually once ObamaCare became law.

If you want more lies such as the ones about ObamaCare, then vote for Hillary Clinton for president next month.

Donald Trump pledges to repeal and replace ObamaCare.
