Obamacare Costs Soaring Beyond Estimates

Mister Speaker:

Some are trying to create the impression that the only problem with Obamacare is the website, and the experts will soon fix that.

Actually the biggest problem with the so-called Affordable Care Act is that it is unaffordable already.

We are already having trouble paying for all the federal medical programs we have now.

The costs of all our federal medical programs have been greatly underestimated at the start.

Now with many millions more losing their coverage than the Administration predicted, added to the millions previously uninsured, the costs of Obamacare are already estimated at possibly four times more than when it was passed, and it is not even fully in place.

And since it took 3 ½ years to even get a screwed-up website partially ready, most people don’t believe the federal government can run our health care system efficiently in the first place.

More bureaucratic, less-humane medical care and all at much greater cost to taxpayers at both the federal and state levels.

This plan is already a mess that will ultimately lead to shortages, waiting periods, and great decline in the quality of American medical care.
