On November 1st, open enrollment begins for Obamacare’s health insurance exchanges. Forbes reported that “in Obamacare’s first six years, average individual premiums more than doubled.” But to make matters even worse, a study from the Kaiser Family Foundation estimates that the average price of individual premiums will increase by an additional 10 percent in 2023.
