NYT: Obamacare’s Other Surprise

[zipplewrath]

10. Another description of something that hasn't happened

We keep getting these predictions of how great Obamacare will be due to some secondary effect. Of course none of them have happened yet. In the end, the reality will almost assuredly be that they aren't any where near as effective as predicted, but they won't be total failures either. And we'll be left arguing if it is "good enough" or if "something is better than nothing", the whole time the rate of inflation of health CARE will be going up at several times the rate of inflation. It is all unsustainable and until we do something about that, none of the current plans or systems are going to be sustainable over the long run. And that includes the plethora of government run health care plans.
