Obamacare Post Failure Analysis

Obamacare failed because it flunked Economics 101 and Human Nature 101. It straitjacketed insurers into providing overly expensive, soup-to-nuts policies. -Chicago Tribune Editorial Board

Obamacare failed because it allowed Americans to sign up after they got sick and needed help paying all those medical bills. Insurance should be structured so that, although you don't know if you'll need it, you pay for it anyway, just in case; your alternative is financial doom. -Chicago Tribune Editorial Board Go To Site

Obamacare failed because it flunked Economics 101 and Human Nature 101. It straitjacketed insurers into providing overly expensive, soup-to-nuts policies. It wasn't flexible enough so that people could buy as much coverage as they wanted and could afford — not what the government dictated. -Chicago Tribune Editorial Board Go To Site

The website for the Affordable Care Act was doomed by an inordinately complex setup that tried to link disparate databases in real time. The fiasco with the $600 million federal health insurance website wasn’t all bureaucratic... In particular, the project was doomed by a relatively late decision that required applicants to open an account and let the site verify their identity, residence, and income before they could browse for insurance. That meant the site would have to interface in real-time with databases maintained by the Internal Revenue Service and other agencies.
