I think other entities had a hand in it, and Obama couldn't stop it.

To me, this is the #1 reason why Trump won. If premiums continue to stay this high (and with the preservation of pre-existing conditions, they might), mu support for Trump will disappear.

It's certainly a big part of the overall economic hardship that's gripping much of the nation. Obamacare doesn't only hurt people via high premiums and deductibles. It's also a huge job killer.

Trump wanting to keep "children" covered by their parents' plan until age 26 is really no big deal. Keeping the mandate for coverage of individuals with pre-existing conditions IS a big deal. It's a budget buster. Maybe we can keep it for a transition period of a year or two, to allow all who CURRENTLY have a pre-existing condition to obtain "coverage". But after that, insurance has to go back to being insurance.
