That's because when universal healthcare was on the table Republicans wouldn't agree with it. Instead of sticking to his guns, Obama attempted to appease them with a half assed version.
As for prescriptions prices being insane in this country, well that's because there is no regulation on their prices like every other modern country in the world has.. I mean fuck even Mexico stops drug companies from price gouging but not in MERICA.. Because.. FREEDOM and well...I'll let you guess who is against regulations....
