In the final presidential debate Thursday night, after taking fire from President Donald Trump about the Democrat’s health care goals, former Vice President Biden repeated President Barack Obama’s most famous lie, and made a promise that goes almost directly against his current proposed health care plan.
“Not one single person would lose their private insurance under my plan, nor did they under Obamacare.” Biden said on stage. “They did not lose their insurance, unless they chose they wanted to go to something else.”
The claim that no one lost their private insurance under Obamacare unless they “wanted to” is an outright lie. Following the Obama administration’s repeated promises that “if you like your plan, you can keep it,” the policy’s harsh rules devastated the individual market for private health insurance, canceling the plans of around 4 million Americans.
This Tweet made me laugh for fear I might just cry.
Our policy disappeared and the new one was over 4x the cost. But my 62 year old wife is now covered for both pregnancy and abortion. That’s a pretty valuable benefit for us.
