The individual mandate which was part of Obama’s signature law, the “Affordable” Care Act, meant that you either had to purchase health insurance or pay a tax to the government. Now that everyone was forced to buy insurancem insurance companies had no real incentive to make health insurance available at low prices.
Except the insurance companies have
never had a real incentive to make health insurance available at low prices. And prior to the ACA, the low price options they
did offer were almost always garbage policies that covered next to nothing and did little else make a profit off of the poorest members of society.

2 years and this country is already being destroyed… Even if 45 doesn’t get re-elected, another 2 years of him may very well make this country unsalvageable. I’m seriously considering making an exit plan to leave this sinking ship, as sad as it is to think about…
I know what you mean, but I would encourage you should stick around. Dissatisfied people tired of what those in charge are doing are the same people throughout history who have worked hardest to change things. The last election didn’t go the way it did because people were indifferent, that’s for sure.
Come January, Trump will no longer have a system where every branch of the government is willing to do whatever stupid thing he wants and ignore all the terrifying abuses he perpetrates. Having the House may not seem like much now, but it really does have the potential to be a big hindrance to him. And two years from now, if people are still passionate enough, we can make sure no branch of government is left that supports his kind of idiocy.
