Dean: Small business will drop health insurance under Obamacare
Howard Dean: one-third of private sector employers will drop health coverage once Obamacare’s insurance exchanges become active. But didn’t Obama say “if you like your insurance, you can keep it?” Damn that Bush for making him lie like that. BTW, the CBO premised their Obamacare score on the assumption that only 7 percent of employers would drop their employee health plans. If the percentage is closer to the 30 percent, as the McKinsey survey results predict, Obamacare’s price tag would rise by almost $1 trillion.
