fix comes in the form of higher penalties.

Obamacare architect Jonathan Gruber joined CNN on Wednesday morning to say the best way to fix the failing health-care law he engineered would be to increase the “penalty.”
A recent study found that Obamacare insurance plans will cost many Americans about 22 percent more next year. For some — like those in Phoenix, Arizona — the cost is much worse, about a 145 percent increase. Since the news broke earlier this week, the Obama administration has frantically been trying to spin the news.
Gruber’s interview on CNN this morning was truly painful — in one breath he says it’s working great, and then in the next calls for a “penalty” increase to punish all those deadbeat Americans who are “free-riding the system.”
“There’s no sense in which this has to be ‘fixed,’ the law’s working as designed,” Gruber said. “However, it could work better, and I think probably the most important thing experts would agree on is that we need a larger mandate penalty.”
