You will be able to keep the insurance you already have - as long as you auction off your first born:
The state's largest insurer has been approved to raise health premium rates by 41 percent to 47 percent for some of its policies sold to individual buyers, in the largest price hikes yet seen in Connecticut since the adoption of national health care reform. For all of its individual market plans, Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield has received approval to raise rates by at least 19 percent -- including a range of 30 percent to 44 percent for the brand of plans in the individual market that was most popular in 2009, Century Preferred.
The reason for the increases is the new federal health reform mandates, according to Anthem and the state Department of Insurance, which is defending its approval against charges by Attorney General Richard Blumenthal. Those reforms took effect Sept. 23.
"The reason for the increases is the new federal health reform mandates..."B-b-b-b-but President said our insurance costs would go down if we passed his reform bill.
Obama said a lot of things to get the bill passed. Anyone who believed this charlatan when he said Republicans were lying about the effects of this bill deserves whatever they get from Obamacare. And now the only thing standing between us and this titanic boondoggle is probably the Supreme Court - a prospect that does not fill one with confidence.
And a bare majority want this mess repealed.
“The state’s largest insurer has been approved to raise health premium rates by 41 percent to 47...”
Sounds like the company does not know how to price itself to me.
B-b-b-b-but we didn't pass it, THEY passed it, whether we wanted it or not!
Then THEY read the bill...
O.K., Linda McMahon, here is your October Surprise. You need to use this against your entrenched, lifelong-Democreat-politician, opponent.
It was a total B.S. letter absolving Hussain's 0bamacare of any blame. I feel bad for most of the rank and file since many have been union members since high school and believe what the leadership tells them.
O.K., my bad. I know that I misspelled “Democrat” in Post #5. It was a typo; I know how to spell.
Yowser!
But it effects everybody, believers and non believers alike.
Thanks Barack!

Yes
Yes
Absolutely what I was thinking
She absolutely positively must use this.
How can she possibly lose with something like this available for her to use?
Thanks American Dream 246.
i bet linda is all over this.
she has run a decent campaign and this is a great opportunity that will not go to waste.
We were just notified that our long term health insurance cost would go up by about 40%. I don’t believe we can afford it and we’re in better shape then most people. The stuff is hitting the fan.
I have a copy of the 2011 Health Insurance program sent out by the Chevron Corporation.
On page 23 it states:
“”On average yuor cost increase will be between 24% and 32% for 2011””
I suspect most other corporations are sending out the same “good” news to their employees this month.
These increases are due to ObamaCare for such things as forcing the corporations to insure 26 year old children of their employees.
If the voters are so dumb to keep the Democrats, then I guess we deserve to go into bankruptcy as Obama is leading us to that end.
Suckers.
Sometimes I think the Obama phenomenon can be best explained but studying not Alinsky or Marx or Fanon...but P.T. Barnum.
btt
and America takes another one in the........

Hope and Change comes to CT.
And CT continues to vote liberal Democrat. :(:(:(
