Insurers Expect a Nearly $1 Billion Bailout under Obamacare

Jeffrey H. Anderson

With nearly all insurance companies under Obamacare estimating they will need funds from the risk-corridor program to help cover their losses, Congress must act before the taxpayer is left with the bill.

  • The Flimsy Justification for Obama’s Usurping of Legislative Power

    Jeffrey H. Anderson

    Cronyism and Coercion

    Jeffrey H. Anderson

    Republicans have an inviting opportunity to go after Obamacare’s risk-corridor slush fund and its unprecedented individual mandate—two things that voters want them to go after.

    The Weekly Standard, June 23, 2014
  • Obamacare Enrollment Was Driven by Coercion

    Obamacare Can’t Be Fixed

    Jeffrey H. Anderson

    Democrats have little desire to “fix” Obamacare and no idea how to do so, in part because any “fix” must either keep Obamacare’s cornerstone—its despised individual mandate—or else send costs soaring still higher, as even the White House admits.

    More Lawlessness on Obamacare

    Jeffrey H. Anderson

    After President Obama said he would veto House-passed legislation to delay the individual mandate, he lawlessly delayed the mandate on his own.

    The Weekly Standard, May 7, 2014
  • Obamacare Is the #1 Thing Americans Would Undo

    Jeffrey H. Anderson

    Polls that say voters care more about the economy than about health care aren’t asking the right question—yes, voters care more about the economy, but the Obama initiative they most oppose is Obamacare.

    The Weekly Standard, April 29, 2014
  • With Victory in Sight on Obamacare, One House GOP Leader Raises White Flag

    Jeffrey H. Anderson

    One would think the fact that Americans have opposed Obamacare in 119 consecutive polls would give Republican leaders sufficient willpower to advance a winning alternative and fight for full repeal.

  • The Administration Has Missed 25 Statutory Deadlines Under Obamacare

    Jeffrey H. Anderson

    President Obama’s own administration isn’t abiding by his signature legislation.

  • The Debate Will Be Over When the American People Say It’s Over

    Jeffrey H. Anderson

    The American people’s opinion on Obamacare hasn’t changed—they hate it as much as they did four years ago and are ready for an alternative.

  • Obamacare Era: 50 Worst Months of Employment in Past 25 Years

    Jeffrey H. Anderson

  • Obamacare’s Score of 67 Percent Merits a D

    Jeffrey H. Anderson

    Only two-thirds as many people have enrolled in Obamacare’s government-run exchanges as the CBO had projected—and that’s even counting those who haven’t paid.

    The Weekly Standard, March 28, 2014
  • No Insurance Is Better than Unapproved Insurance Under Obamacare

    Jeffrey H. Anderson

    The exorbitant penalties for offering non-compliant insurance under Obamacare make it clear that the administration’s primary concern is to regulate private plans—rather than to increase access to them.
