Obamacare Premiums Up 30% In TX, MS, KS; 50% In IL, AZ, PA; 93% In NM: When Does The Death Spi

[H. E. Panqui]

...republican cheerleaders have exposed themselves as goddamned fools as they lay the blame on 'the democrats'...

...'health care' was screwed looooooooong before obomba...occupational licensure, etc. ad nauseam, has long-guaranteed that government-approved 'doctors' and the other 'providers' have little/no honest competition...making them 'price makers' to the consumers' role as 'price takers'...people whine about 'single payer'...but NEVER about 'single [government licensed] provider' which makes 'single payer' practically inevitable in our 'democracy'...[think about it]

...many republicans/conservatives will whine about 'unions' and 'rent-seeking'...but not a peep about the HUGE, POWERFUL 'medical union'...[it appears that unless something is discussed on talk radio, republicans/conservatives are oblivious]
...but other than the late milton friedman [who i don't believe ever ran for public office] the stinking rotten republicans are as much to blame as the stinking rotten democrats...chronic republicrat disease....

...and stinking hillary and the stinking democrats aren't going to make it better...and neither will stinking trump or any of the stinking republicans....

...republicrats. suck. always......

^^^THIS

the problem is not "obamacare"

the problem is:

FDA Drug Approval
Licensing Doctors and Pharmacists
Patenting Recipes
Accrediting Education
Care Mandates
Insurance Mandates

All of these illegitimate ENTITLEMENTS create economically artificial supply shortage.

I agree 100%. Don't forget Medicare and a bunch of other government induced problems.

I'd like to see more emphasis placed on the cost of health care BEFORE the government got involved. You could get health insurance for something like $50 ... A YEAR!!! back in the 1950s. And even back then they had government tax deductions for employers, imagine if it was totally free market.

It's a crazy system.

Especially when near a reservation.

For You , I can probably arrange an OyardeCare plan .

Obamacare helps walmart workers and is a direct attack on the self employed segment of the middle class. I had insurance before obamacare, and even in 2015, but then they wanted to bump it like 50 percent after obamacare already caused my other policy to be cancelled and the nearest alternative was like a 100 more a month for fuckall more. So, I'm just not going to have insurance, if I get cancer a leap off the overpass will cure it, as long as the welfare queens and checkout clerks get charged 20.00 a month for better subsidized insurance that is all that matters. My life for the state!

If I actually purchased insurance it would be my largest bill. WTF... and that is with a 5000.00 deductible. I fucking HATE Obama and all liberals.

 

[Dr.No.]

You don't have to participate in the exchange. Obamacare's only effect on you would be the mandate...you can still get insurance outside of the exchanges, although I think you give up on certain guarantees (which, of course, make the plans more expensive).

Where are these mythical non obamacare effected plans. I just went to Blue Cross Blue Shield's website, and all of them are 3 times or more the cost than I was paying 3 years ago with BLUE CROSS BLUE SHIELD.

Point is what freaking difference does it make if it's outside of the goobermint exchanges, all the policies skyrocketed, everywhere. Again fook Obama, and all liberals, and all those pro state straight to the fooking lowest pit of hell.

edited to also add, this retarded censoring of curse words on here is pathetic.
