Vox Asks Twitter How Obamacare Impacted Their Lives, Gets Flood of Negative Responses
Vox asked Twitter users on Wednesday for stories on how the Affordable Care Act affected their lives, appearing to expect positive responses about former President Obama's chief legislative achievement.
What the liberal publication got instead was a flood of stories highlighting skyrocketing premium costs and health care insurance loss, among other things.
"The ACA essentially saved my life," said a Vox reader in a quote posted to the publication's Twitter timeline. Vox tweeted, "Tell us how the Affordable Care Act has impacted your life," above that quote.
Twitter users responded with stories that had a more negative tone, Twitchy reported. Some respondents told stories of how Obamacare made their premiums "skyrocket."

@voxdotcom my family premium went from $789 a month w/1k ded. to $1929 w/8k ded. In 3 years. We also lost several key doctors.

@voxdotcom family premium has increased 10-14% / year. Very UNaffordable for majority who are mandated to subsidize (persons & corporate)

@voxdotcom Obamacare has made it impossible to expand my small business. Until it's gone, I will not be hiring.

@voxdotcom the hospital I work for is freezing raises because insufficient reimbursement for services rendered. The ACA needs to go.

When you read responses like this, its obvious that Republicans need to get Obolacare replaced, because with or without a replacement, it is cratering.
The reasons are clear, the mandated insurance components are not sustainable as evidenced by the cancellations and the steeply escalating premiums and deductibles.
