Obamacare premium rate hikes have hit big time in Minnesota, which has gone all in on Obamacare courtesy of Governor Mark Dayton<\/a>. Governor Dayton professes himself shocked that the Affordable Care Act is \u201cno longer affordable.\u201d<\/a> Thanks, guy. Gee, who could have seen it coming<\/a>?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dayton is trying to create some distance between Democrats standing for election to the legislature and the unfolding catastrophe<\/a> of Obamacare. He must think we\u2019re really, really stupid and, like President Obama<\/a>, he\u2019s got the electoral success to prove it.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The answer to the healthcare insurance<\/a> problem is a free market system<\/a> that operates with minimum interference from the government. Government regulation tends to skew the market, making health insurance more expensive by impacting competition, and creating a situation where companies will withdraw from the market. That is part of the problem with ObamaCare. There needs to be enough regulation to ensure that everyone can get insurance, but not enough to skew the market. Insurance companies use actuary tables to calculate rates. When the government got involved in health insurance, they had no knowledge of how these tables worked. Therefore, they managed to ruin a health insurance system that was working for most Americans. The Democrats who voted for ObamaCare (there were no Republican votes for ObamaCare) have managed to ruin healthcare for a majority of Americans. If you want full government healthcare, vote Democrat, but before you do that you might want to look at the wait times for medical care in the United Kingdom, which has government healthcare. If you want healthcare to be a private enterprise that actually works, vote Republican. It is that simple.<\/p>\n
