Obamacare is the failure that critics said it would be

Washington Post:
Health-care exchange sign-ups fall far short of forecasts

The law requires every American to get health coverage or pay a penalty, but even getting the uninsured to enroll has been a challenge. Because of financial losses for insurers, more than 1 in 4 counties risk of having a only single insurer on its exchange next year, according to one estimate.
Some critics of the plan think Obamacare was designed to fail so that Democrats could use that failure as an excuse to push a single payer rationed healthcare scheme.   Whatever their motive, the Democrat healthcare scheme has not provided the affordable care that they promised.  For those not on the Medicaid roles, it is costlier with fewer choices.

Power Line gives a good example of how the single payer system has worked out for Britain.
