Time and again, both chambers of Congress miss the major point that is the biggest contention of Obamacare – it is unconstitutional. Yet, Republicans keep lambasting the administration about increased premiums since the unconstitutional [Un]Affordable Care Act, aka Obamacare, was implemented. Instead of taking the bull by the horns and repealing this piece of unconstitutional legislation that no Republican voted to enact, these blinder wearing tools of government called for major changes to Obamacare in Tuesday’s House Committee Ways and Means hearing.

The Daily Caller reports:

Citing the large number of insurers proposing double-digit increases – partially due to lower enrollment than expected and cost higher than were initially projected – a reduction in coverage options and the majority of the Obamacare exchanges closing, members on the panel said the bill has been a failure “failing ahead of schedule.”

“Estimates show that increases in 2017 could be double what we see this year and, in several states, these costs could spike by more than 50 percent with no end in sight. A 50 percent increase is outrageous,” Chairman Kevin Brady of Texas said in his opening statement. “Americans simply cannot afford to pay 50 percent more for their premiums.”
