It is going to vary state by state. The insurance companies said that by next year Californians (you guys are always "lucky" lol) will be paying EIGHTY PERCENT MORE on their premiums!!!

The lowest state I heard on the report was Ohio which will be paying 30% MORE.

The insurance company I use is Blue Cross/Blue Shield. Ours has been going up steadily the last two years...and BC/BS is saying that my premium will rise FIFTY PERCENT MORE by next year!!!!

MSNBC also played President Obama video footage where he signed the bill and proclaimed that it was going to LOWER costs for everybody (including businesses).

You know it sucks when MSNBC even has to admit that it's not working.

The entire point of "Obama Care" was supposed to be that health care was too expensive. And then instead of addressing the fact that Big Pharma and Big Medical price gouge Americans (we pay 3 to 4 times MORE for everything)...we all know that they gave a nice big present to the insurance companies.

So the entire reason for the existance of "Obama Care" is now doing the OPPOSITE of what it is supposed to do.

What now?
