If you like your medicines, you may not be able to keep them under Obamacare. The President famously promised that you could keep your health plan and doctor. For many people, both of those pledges are turning out not to be true. And now, you might not be able to keep your drugs, either. There are two reasons why. The first issue has to do with the higher out of pocket costs patients … [Read more...] about Scott Gottlieb: No, You Can’t Keep Your Drugs Either Under Obamacare

by Grace-Marie Turner and Tyler Hartsfield All eyes have been focused on the functionality of the HealthCare.gov website — or the lack thereof — since its launch October 1. But another rolling disaster is underway that is much more significant: Despite the president’s assurances to the contrary, virtually everyone — not just the 15 million Americans with individual policies — will feel the brunt … [Read more...] about We Should All Worry about the ACA

Well, Halleluiah.  The Obamacare website is up and running. Of course, at only half a million applications processed so far… and accounting for the ones that the system garbled or couldn’t verify or seems to have lost… and anticipating the tens of millions of Americans predicted to lose coverage once the employer mandate kicks in and it turns out to be simpler and cheaper for companies to send … [Read more...] about Clark Judge: ObamaCare Dangerous to Health of Poor

Anyone with a conscience should be offended by the greatest generational theft ever witnessed in the history of the world. Young Americans—especially the Millennial generation born between 1977 and 1995—are the biggest losers in this battle, but it will adversely affect their children and grandchildren to boot.  Obamacare simply represents the latest front in this war, which now rages from Social … [Read more...] about Conover: Why Aren’t Millennials Marching In The Street Over Obamacare?

The new health-insurance exchanges were launched on October 1 amid empty promises and a host of delays and snafus. But what if the political architects of Obamacare’s insurance expansion consider this disastrously bad start only the beginning of a grander opportunity? Let’s assume that the problems of hastily assembled and inadequately tested software will be solved. Then assume further that … [Read more...] about Miller: The ACA’s Mission Creep
