Jonathan Gruber admitted in 2009 that Obamacare would not bring down healthcare costs

 Back in 2009 Obamacare architect Jonathan Gruber released a policy brief in which he admitted whatever form of healthcare reform was passed that it would not do anything to bring down healthcare costs.

  This is what he said on page 18 of the aforementioned brief:

Sure, we would like health care to be a little cheaper, or the cost to rise more slowly, but Americans aren’t ready to deal with the hard measures we’d have to take to get health care costs under control. That’s why I’ve been arguing strenuously that even though the bills that will come out of this process in the end won’t do a whole lot about cost control, they’re still a critical first step

  And from page 19:

Why are we closer than we’ve ever been before? Because there are no cost controls in these proposals. Because this bill’s about coverage. Which is good! Why should we
hold 48 million uninsured people hostage to the fact that we don’t yet know how to control costs in a politically acceptable way? Let’s get the people covered and then let’s do cost control.

  I can understand the point he is making, however that is not the bill of goods Barack Obama sold to the American people. He claimed his proposal would extend coverage to more Americans AND would save the Average family $2,500.

  Here we can clearly see that was never part of the plan, this ranks right up there with if you like your plan you can keep your plan…
