This Obamacare stuff is really starting to scare the crap out of me, as if it didn’t already.
I just used a calculator provided by an organization that SUPPORTS Obamacare.
It said that with my current (modest) salary, if my employer did not provide health insurance (and what if they drop it, as so many have?), I would be paying 12% of my gross salary for healthcare, a sum larger than my rent payment. I would not be eligible for the subsidy Rush mentioned, as the income figure is for a family of four.
Do you realize what a killer that would be to the economy? How much otherwise disposable income would be taken out of consumers pockets in order to fund health care?
Please post this link. I would like to share with some people.
The whole thing just sucks.
