Nancy Pelosi was RIGHT! We're learning what is in ObamaCare. A 3,000 INCREASE in Premiums instead of the $2,500 CUT promised by President Barack Hussein Obama.

During his first run for president, Barack Obama made one very specific promise to voters: He would cut health insurance premiums for families by $2,500, and do so in his first term.


But it turns out that family premiums have increased by more than $3,000 since Obama's vow, according to the latest annual Kaiser Family Foundation employee health benefits survey.


Premiums for employer-provided family coverage rose $3,065 — 24% — from 2008 to 2012, the Kaiser survey found. Even if you start counting in 2009, premiums have climbed $2,370.

And we ain't seen nothin' yet if President Barack Hussein Obama is re-elected.

That's why they kept all the taxes and cost increases for AFTER the election. Just imagine

I have to agree that special interests got exactly what they wanted from President Obama which was 40 million more customers, a couple years carte Blanche to raise rates, and only pennies on the dollars reductions on negotiated drug prices over the next decade......Big fail. The answer always was medicare for all, which will provide an efficient health care delivery system which we will have to pay for.......so you worry about 3k a year, yet my shots cost 266k a year to stay alive, and in Canada it costs 72k,,,,,,and you think the problem is Obama and not the special interests who own congress.......nope.

We need a simple national sales tax which EVERYBODY pays on their purchases and we right the ship in medicaid and an expanded medicare covers every American and takes the middleman out of American health care.

Your annual injections are $266,000.00? OMG . . . .

People think I have been changing my positions on issues....that I have become a socialist.....nope, I have just become educated on how screwed up our system has become......I am a lucky one because the second shot I am getting is being covered by blue cross.....some insurance does not cover the second 30mg shot, and people are simply dying. I talk with the nurse on the infusion floor of Northwestern Hospital in Chicago once a month, and she tells me they have a foundation to help people.....but there is not enough money, and people are dying. So I will get my shot the first week in October, my 10th shot hoping I can make the record of 110 shots, but fully knowing that 38 is the average, hoping I am not going to pull the average down, and thankful for every month where I am still able to live an incredibly quality life because of these shots.....but when I think a Canadian or a Brit is paying 6k a month while I spend 22k, and that people are dying because of pricing......yep, I am a changed person. For all those people who are young and strong....and incredibly selfish like I was......not paying for medicare and medicaid was not big deal.....I needed to keep my selfish babyboom hands on as much money to buy "stuff", but I have bad news for babyboomers......their future is sitting in a wheelchair in a warehouse twenty years into the future because of the way they vote today.......Karma is a bitch.

Good thing we don't have ObamaCare yet and you don't live in Canada or Great Britain. You'd already be on the wrong side of the green grass.
