The Congressional Budget Office says that Obamacare is in good shape: Under current law,most subsidized enrollees purchasing health insurance coverage in the nongroup market are largely insulated from increases in premiums because their out-of-pocket payments for premiums are based on a percentage of their income; the government pays the difference. The subsidies to purchase coverage combined with the penalties paid by uninsured people stemming from the individual mandate are anticipated to cause sufficient demand for insurance by people with low health care expenditures for the market to be steady.
Insurance companies are starting to make money on Obamacare. Nearly 20 million people contain health insurance because of Obamacare. Premiums will probably go up next year, but not by a enormous amount. And even if they do go up, and federal subsidies will shield most people from having to pay any more than this year. Because of all this,CBO believes that Obamacare will stay steady and strong:President Trump tweeted the opposite nowadays, saying once again that Obamacare was on the verge of failing. This is a lie, and one that he's repeated over and over. Obamacare will fail only if he cuts off its funding.
The reason for this post isn't so much to mention that Trump lied again nowadays. The sun also rose in the east,and I didn't write about that. It's to remind everyone—including me—to discontinue writing tweets and blog posts that say something like this: Trump says Obamacare is in a death spiral. He's wrong.
When we repeat the lie, we just give it more exposure. The discontinuance result is that people vaguely know something about Obamacare and death spiral and controversial, or that's it. They don't really know who's good,they just know that they preserve seeing stuff about Obamacare being in danger.
So don't do it. Instead, just write the truth and then mention that Trump has lied about it.
