What's Behind Obamacare ?

The article "You'll pay a lot more to see the doctor with Obamacare" on CNNMoney talks about the Obamacare enrollees, who have to pay a lot more to see a doctor and get medications than through their job-based insurance. The article talks about this fact by comparing deductibles, co-pays, drugs, annual maximums between employer insurance and Obamacare insurance. The data from the graphs shows that people actually pay a lot more with Obamacare. This is very shocking because as we all know, Obamacare was announced as the most affordable insurance for every US residency. This article is worth reading because that it states a different opinion which is very important to all the Obamacare enrollees. So what is really behind Obamacare and is Obamacare really helping with the American health care? I think the answers will be different based on different income groups. From this article, Obamacare might help with low income, uninsured people, but definitely not for everyone.
