Obamacare sticker shock in 2019 for States is due to Democrats in the U.S. Congress not putting into the latest budget bill dollar amounts to help State governments.
Just like any drug that gets you hooked. Get States to get hooked on Obamacare by helping pay (subsidizes by the U.S. Congress money (aka that is our tax dollars by the way) and then once hooked, walk away. I guess you can still keep your doctor, that is if you pay cash and not use your insurance card. So many things the U.S. government said about Obamacare that was false. But why should we as Americans be surprised? They said the same about Iraq and Vietnam too. Right?
If we only we Americans did what Joseph did in Genesis 39 – RUN! When government says let me help you…RUN!
