Ours is going up $5K. Combine that with no raises for each of us the past five years and the skyrocketing cost of living and frugality becomes essential, not optional, for our middle class family.
* We’ve always been frugal, it’s just that now we have to be. Good thing we’re used to it.

Affordable Health Care, or Affordable Insurance for Health Care. Which is it?

This is an example of “socialist Realism” .....dictated by Stalin in the 1930 that all writers will write about the glorious future of the Soviet Union as if it already was a reality, regardless of the actual current reality...

Of course it won’t be cheaper! Here in Minnesota, Democrat Governor Dayton is trying to get a waiver for Minnesotacare, because “Obamacare is too expensive for the poor.”

Unh-hunh.
