Obama Fact Checked: Shock, He Lied

From Fox News: Is President Obama’s latest health care promise – that his plan will offer “most” people a better plan for the same price or less than their current policy – actually true?

Some analysts say no.

"That’s not an accurate argument," says Avik Roy of the Manhattan Institute. "If your plan is now covering a bunch of things that you don’t need, then how is it a better plan for you?"
 Former Congressional Budget Office Director Doug Holtz-Eakin says there's no evidence to support the president's claim.
"You can do the math," he says. "Most of the policies in his claim could spend more, cover more things, provide more visits and charge less." But, he concludes, "the arithmetic just does not work."
Obama’s remarks last month were an effort to deflect criticism for having earlier promised that people could keep their plans and doctors no matter what.
 "Most people, he said, "will be able to buy better plans for the same price or even cheaper than what they've gotten before."
 A few days after that promise, the president appeared to downgrade the pledge somewhat, saying only that "there's a good chance that they'll be able to buy better insurance at lower cost."
 The promise that "most people" would be better off is sharply disputed by many, including a number of individuals experiencing sticker shock, including those with pre-existing conditions.
They include Tom Gialanella of Seattle, who had a policy that was renewed for years even after he had cancer -- not the kind of sub-standard policy the president likes to criticize.
 But he says his new policy under ObamaCare "went from $891 a month to $1,437 a month and also my deductibles all doubled."
Andrew Leonard recently told Fox News’ Greta Van Susteren that he "would get the terrible, terrible plan with the $6,000 deductible." As far as the premiums are concerned, he said, " I'll pay $1,200 dollars a year for that and I'll be less insured than I am today."  
 Analysts say those whose policies are canceled will get new coverage, but not at lower prices.
 "What we're seeing is that the new ObamaCare plans typically have higher deductibles than the old plans did," says Roy, along with "a narrower choice of doctors and hospitals and yet higher premiums."  http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2013/12/02/fact-check-is-president-obama-latest-health-care-promise-true/
Common sense says that if you are forced to cover more health insurance items, your prices are not going to go down, they are going to go up.
For instance, if you are a gay married male, why would you need maternity care in your insurance?  And pay for mammograms?
Why should women have to pay for male health problems?
You can say that large insurance groups do this already but the major difference is that before ObamaCare, you weren't forced to buy these insurance plans.  Under ObamaCare, you are now forced to buy the insurance or pay a fine, which many people will opt to do.
Yes, there were problems with health care for some people but ObamaCare decided to amputate an arm and a leg to cure  headache and there is no denying that.
