It isn't all about Obamacare, of course. Some (a lot, actually) of it just dumb economic policy.

We're five years into the Obama administration, and the true unemployment rate stands at 10.7%. Tell us again how well the stimulus worked, how great Obama's economic policy is, and how Obamacare is helping the poor.

But if you really want to see how Obamacare is affecting the working poor, this tells the story. The first chart shows us that people making 14.50/hour or less are essentially facing the SAME problem they had when the recession bottomed out nearly five years ago. The other two just tell us what a mess the employment picture is.
