The steady march of insurers that have announced plans to exit marketplaces in recent weeks leaves Obamacare customers in wide swaths of the country with potentially no options for purchasing subsidized coverage in 2018. In the latest and most significant blow, Anthem this week announced it will pull out of Ohio next year, leaving at least 18 counties without an insurer selling Obamacare plans.
Republicans characterize their efforts to repeal and replace Obamacare as a “rescue mission,” citing skyrocketing premiums, dwindling competition and lower-than-expected enrollment in many states. “Wave goodbye,” President Donald Trump said of Obamacare in a speech in Ohio on Wednesday, gleefully referring to Anthem’s exit. “What a mess.”

Obama created a mess and new it the whole time. The left always sells out the people like we are sheep.
I'm not sure letting Obamacare implode entirely just to say we told you so is the right answer. I am a conservative and agree the whole thing was a mess from the get go and my tip off was Pelosi stating we need to pass it to find out what is in it. Totally ridiculous and she should have been ridden out on a rail over that. That is an insult to American people. And then the "architect" who claimed Americans are too stupid to realize they had been duped. What I don't understand is the constituents who voted for the liberals not stepping up and demanding these fools work with the conservatives to get something in place that works. Guess they are afraid to admit that Trump and his administration can do it better.
BS - Obamacare master plan of the single payer system is why insurers are leaving.
