Did insurance premiums really increase because of Obamacare? I am continuing to write my essay on Universal healthcare, showing both the pros and cons, but I haven't been able to find any evidence Obamacare actually increased premiums, all I can find are conservative media outlets saying so. Trump often claimed Obamacare caused insurance prices to rise, and even some to lose their insurance, but I'm have trouble finding any evidence of that. Does anyone know anymore about this, or have any links to credible sites showing evidence of it?

Exactly. At best it failed at what the people wanted it to do, and yet people still defend it. I say failed at what the people wanted because I suspect in terms of shifting funny money around and providing some gibs to blue state degenerates it succeeded. Legislation is like war: what they tell you it's for is usually bullshit, but if you follow the money you can often figure out what the real motives were.
