On March 23, 2010, the president signed ObamaCare into law after it was rammed through Congress behind closed doors.

Little more than three years later, on April 17, 2013, Sen. Max Baucus of Montana, one of the primary authors of ObamaCare, called the bill “a train wreck.”

He was on to something.

On July 2, 2013 – with the law’s most central provisions about to take effect – President Obama decided to delay the implementation of his crown jewel for employers after realizing the rollout would be more difficult than anticipated.

On July 17, 2013, representatives from the three largest labor unions, the same ones that figured prominently in ObamaCare’s program, announced that a government take-over of healthcare no longer worked for them. In a letter to Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi sent last week, these union leaders announced that ObamaCare would “shatter” their health benefits, “destroy” the 40-hour work week, and that “unintended consequences” would cause “nightmare scenarios.”

The bad news for ObamaCare doesn’t even come close to stopping there.

According to a new U.S. Chamber of Commerce quarterly survey, 72 percent of small businesses say ObamaCare is making it harder for them to hire. A recent analysis by one insurance company showed that the cost increase for those getting a new insurance plan would be $151 a month.

The number of Americans who will lose their employer-based health insurance due to ObamaCare? 7 million. Total taxes in ObamaCare? Upwards of $829.3 billion. The amount of Medicare cuts? $716 billion.

I couldn’t have said it better myself, Senator Baucus. ObamaCare is a train wreck.

Adding to the pileup, last week President Obama gave a speech attempting to gloss over the rise in healthcare premiums, despite his broken campaign promise to lower them by $2,500 per family.

Indeed, a brand new chart released by his administration shows the true bureaucratic nightmare of the ObamaCare enrollment process. According to this chart, the process can involve up to 21 steps and 5 government agencies.

ObamaCare is driving up healthcare costs, preventing families and businesses from keeping the health plans they've already chosen, and costing precious American jobs. If a picture is worth a thousand words, this one should be worth trillions.

Almost every major promise the president made has been broken.

Just last Thursday, in response to President Obama’s delay of ObamaCare’s so-called employer mandate, the House voted to delay its implementation for individuals and families as well. Because why should businesses be spared what individuals are not?

But the best delay of all for this train wreck? A permanent one.
