“The biggest problem with Obamacare is that it is a benefit and enormously profitable for the insurance companies. But it’s not real healthcare coverage for the average person,” Sara Flounders, co-director of the International Action Center said on Saturday.
Flounders said the law has “many, many loopholes” that American citizens do not know.
