Trump Donor: ObamaCare Is So Expensive that People Moved to Medicaid

EXCERPT:

LAMBERT: "Well, I don‘t think — I don‘t think the American people voted for Trump to raise taxes. So, we all know there‘s a spending problem. That‘s the problem. And, you know, it‘s Medicaid, Medicare and obviously Social Security are the big outlays. It‘s close to $1 trillion in Medicaid, about 900 billion, I think, right now, for about 72 million people, as was just said. It really shows the failure of ObamaCare. And ObamaCare is so expensive. A family has to pay about $24,000 to be covered under ObamaCare. You can‘t afford it. So all this thing about Obama was going to solve the health care problem, everybody‘s moved over to Medicaid. It‘s moving towards socialized medicine for the entire country. That‘s the problem. And that‘s what they‘re trying to figure out how to fix. And when you have working age males that are on Medicaid, that‘s a real problem when you have 4% unemployment. So we have a pretty full employment economy. Wages are not as high as they need to be. A lot of that has to do with immigration problems and outsourcing of jobs. So there‘s a whole gamut of issues around this. But when you have that many people that can work and pay, there needs to be — something needs to be done on the health care cost side of things, and that‘s a really hard problem to tackle."
