Obamanocare vastly increases the number who put off medical care due to cost:

Gallup: Record Number Of Americans Forgoing Getting Medical Care Because Of Costs



But Obamacare was supposed to give everybody health care?

Via Daily Caller:

One in three Americans has put off seeking medical treatment in 2014 due to high costs, according to Gallup — the highest percentage since Gallup began asking the question in 2001.

Thirty-three percent of Americans have delayed medical treatment for themselves or their families because of the costs they’d have to pay, according to the survey. Obamacare, of course, had promised that it would help make health care more affordable for everyone, but the number of people who can’t afford a trip to the doctor has actually risen three points since 2013, before most Obamacare provisions took effect.

The hardest-hit: the middle-class. Americans with an annual household income of between $30,000 and $75,000 began delaying medical care over costs more in 2014, up to 38 percent in 2014 from 33 percent last year; among households that earn above $75,000, 28 percent delayed care this year, compared to just 17 percent last year.

“This issue about charging, which I find to be a racially tinged offensive word in and of itself, but I would have asked him, what exactly does that mean?” MSNBC legal analyst Lisa Bloom

Now the San Diego Chargers will need to change their "racially tinged offensive" name.

That would require actually learning from experience. The Right doesn't do that. They just find someone to blame, even if they have to make up reasons. Because nothing is ever their fault.
