All privatized health care systems make money,
Notice the word Privatized Insurance, means they make money off of sick people.
Lots and lots of money on lots of sick people.
Kinda like how Trump is actually trying(congrats to him if) by squeezing the pharmaceutical industry for cheaper drug prices.You should understand that comparison
Now both sides should do the same for healtcare.

I will add that SOB was dying of cancer at the time with his Cadillac government healthcare benefits plan and did not have to deal the shite sandwich that Obamacare left the working middle class with ever growing premiums and deductibles.

The insurance mandate was a critical piece to keep cost down by spreading the risk over a larger group. When the republicans repealed the individual mandate, one of the primary cost control forces was eliminated
So from the passage of the bill until 2017, we didn’t see major increases in premiums, reductions in average coverage (including much higher deductibles and OOP) or total dollars spent on healthcare?
Foh
If you weren’t allowed to dissemble, you would cease to post.

Obamacare was never about health care.
It was about wealth redistribution and forcing people to give their money to insurance companies. The bill was written by the insurance lobby.

In reality Obamacare increased the number of insured people in the US by around 45 million people
A lot of these newly insured were young single men, who typically don't need much insurance.
The fact is that 70% of the population was happy with their insurance and this monster of a bill gave more money and power to insurance companies.
It was and is a bad bill that created a lot more problems than it solved.

Well now it's 82% and more people are insured. I understand that you are furious that some vulnerable americans are alittle bit better off. I really do understand that you watch too much fox news and you just have to be angry about everything. But I guess I really DGAF.

No . . . WE told YOU it was doomed and that this is where we would end up. WE told YOU that it was a Trojan Horse designed to destroy private insurance. And YOU ridiculed US and called us uncaring/racist/selfish and everything else. Just like you're doing now. We know the score, bud. And we know what team you play for.

Why is more people being insured a benchmark we should care about? The point of having more people insured is to spread risk and cost. What has happened is exactly the opposite.

I don't watch Foxnews and I'm not angry.
82% are happy with their insurance doesn't equate to being happy with the ACA.
You must have skipped this part in the article you posted
"Meanwhile, 46 percent of survey respondents prefer keeping the ACA in place, while 24 percent want Congress to repeal the law and 30 percent are unsure."
That means that half of those respondents aren't exactly "thrilled" with the ACA.
If the subsidies go away, I suspect that the number of people wanting something else will go up.

And therein lies the rub. Can't go back. And now Democrats are positioning themselves to come in with their solution. Universal healthcare. And guess who is gonna pay for it all.

Read that somewhere or heard it on CNN?
If was a fraud on day one and continues to be one now. In its present state Obamacare will break the bank as insurance premiums advance each year.
In your little report….it doesn’t cover more than 20 million non contributing unexpected guests.
Your report was wrong the day it was published.
