The vast rightwing conspiracy is at it again. They are attacking Obamacare. This time the perpetrators of the attack are National Public Radio, the Harvard University School of Public Health and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. This trio did a detailed survey of the American public to determine how Obamacare has impacted the public. Here are some of their key findings:
1. Sixteen percent of the public said that their health insurance benefits had increased under Obamacare while twelve percent said those benefits had decreased. It was essentially a tie.
2. 35% of the public said their co-pays and deductibles had increased under Obamacare while 4% said those costs had decreased.
3. 45% of those surveyed said that their health insurance premiums had increased under Obamacare while 3% said that those premiums had decreased.
4. 25% of the public said they had been "directly hurt" by Obamacare while 15% said that they had been helped by Obamacare.
Remember, these results were obtained by three groups that are strong members of the liberal Obama coalition. They would have done anything possible to make the numbers look good for Obamacare. Even so, the data obtained is a major indictment of Obamacare as a total failure. It drove costs through the roof and hurt nearly twice as many people as it helped. In other words, Obamacare has been adjudged a major failure by the law's strongest supporters.
