...With executive actions?

If only someone had warned the administration that ObamaCare wouldn't cut the average family's insurance premiums by $2,500 a year. If only someone, somewhere, had sounded the alarm that ObamaCare would cause premiums and deductibles to soar. Maybe, had there been a brave soul willing to challenge the official narrative, Chelsea Clinton wouldn't have to be out their talking about fixing the "crushing costs" associated with the affordable care act.
Oh wait. There was someone doing all of that. Their name is "every conservative on Earth." They were ignored and so, as the Weekly Standard reports, Chelsea has leapt into action....A video shows Chelsea Clinton blasting the "crushing costs" of President Barack Obama's signature legislation. In the video, Chelsea Clinton tells a crowd that her mother, Hillary Clinton, is open to using executive action to reduce "crushing costs" of Obamacare. "...cap on out of pocket expenses. This was part of my mom's original plan back in '93 and '94, as well as premium costs. We can either do that directly or through tax credits. And, kind of figuring out whether she could do that through executive action, or she would need to do that through tax credits working with Congress. She thinks either of those will help solve the challenge of kind of the crushing costs that still exist for too many people, who even are part of the Affordable Care Act and buying insurance..."Now, if you were one of the people foolish enough to believe that the ACA was a good idea in the first place, you might be stupid enough to think that Hillary genuinely wants it to be "fixed." She doesn't. What she wants is the same thing she's always wanted: a vast, government-run, single payer system.
