re: Obama Posts About ACA

We have actual data that shows Obamacare failed horribly at its main goal: reduce healthcare costs

And this is the real problem with this legislation and the general understanding of its intent. Cost savings were never the primary intended effect. The ACA was designed to do several things:

1. Accelerate consolidation of the administration of medical care into a few large organizations but reducing physician/professional reimbursement (and thus influence over the delivery of healthcare) and "relatively" increasing reimbursement to facilities. This then places control of the system into the hands of corporate bureaucrats.

2. Subjugate those large organizations to centralized federal control by then having undue influence over the reimbursement for medical services.

3. Centralized big data collection by the government through implementation of universal EMR usage.

4. All of which ultimately leads to the real objective of a de facto single payer, government controlled healthcare system. Which is what they wanted from the beginning.


And it is working amazingly well at all of these things.
