Aside from the well-known lie that you can keep your health plan if you want, Obamacare is going to cost BILLIONS more than originally projected.
So Obamacare is now supported by unsustainable debt spending.
e large subsidies for health insurance that helped fuel the successful drive to sign up approximately 8 million Americans for coverage under the Affordable Care Act are on track to cost billions of dollars this year, a new federal report indicates.
Nearly nine in 10 Americans who bought healthcare coverage on the federal government’s healthcare marketplaces received government assistance to offset their premiums.
June 18, 10:30 a.m.: Because of an error in calculations, a previous version of this article incorrectly stated that a new federal report indicates that the cost of insurance subsidies under President Obama’s healthcare law may be running above current projections. The figures in the report actually suggest that the cost of the subsidies is roughly in line with current projections from the Congressional Budget Office.
That assistance helped lower premiums for consumers who bought healthcare coverage on federal marketplaces by 76% on average, according to the new report from the Department of Health and Human Services.
Premiums that normally would have cost $346 a month on average instead cost consumers just $82, with the federal government picking up the balance of the bill.
he is such a wimp in front of communism…. no wonder Putin said he is an innocent child in world politics….
If we are getting pissy about billions of dollars wasted, how about the 24 billion dollars that was removed from our economy when republicans tried block obamacare by shutting down the government http://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/4110818
Wow
wow aaron, you must be smokin that good stuff. tell me, when was the last time the government told you the truth, about anything ????
Lying muslim POS!!
It should surprise no one. Obama isn’t even smart enough to add two single digit numbers! He delegates his math to one of his high school graduate staffers!
Just wait until the end of the year when all the costs go up and up and up
Republicans didn’t shut down the government alone. Seems a stubborn headed prez refused to negotiate about anything. It’s always his way or no way. Get real.
Some times Congressional Dems just are so hard headed and won’t do anything. So I am in favor of the Repubs and the Liberals doing a few things; with absolutely no help. Maybe they will get mad enough to stop this crazy spending; and fighting with words.
I’m sorry candy Kay…. Was there a rebuttal of some sort in there? Because in no way did you come close to disproving anything I have said… Or even reference any of the topics I have brought up in any sensible manner. I am not obamas biggest fan either but the rampant ignorance and pointless hatred with absolutely no factual basis is not only ridiculous but just plain dumb.
