The Federalist: Obamacare Enrollment Is 'Growing' Because The Welfare State Expanded
The Biden administration celebrates an increase in Obamacare enrollment, but critics argue that it is more of a welfare state expansion than a true expansion of health insurance. Many enrollees are only signing up for coverage when it costs them less than $10 per month, raising questions about the nature of insurance. Despite the increased subsidies, the Affordable Care Act and subsequent measures have not made healthcare more affordable. The cost of extending the enhanced subsidy regime is likely to be much higher than anticipated, and it is ironic that Joe Biden himself has avoided paying his Obamacare taxes while enjoying a luxurious lifestyle.
