President Obama held a town hall yesterday in Indiana, and faced a question from a steel plant manager about rising health care costs. And Obama told him he might not be “shopping effectively enough.”
The man said, “One of the questions I had is about the health care costs. We are seeing almost a double-digit increase in health care costs every year. So do you think that trends will go down and what can we do to control that trend?”
Obama answered, “The question is whether you guys are shopping effectively enough, because it turns out that this year, and in fact over the course of the last four years, premiums have gone up at the slowest rate in 50 years.”
He touted this fact quite a bit and ended by telling the man he’ll make sure he gets put in contact with health care people. Obama said, “I’ll bet we can get you a better deal.”

Obama to Steel Plant ManagerL "Your Health Care Costs are Rising because.... F*** Y**".
You can’t expect Cadillac Healthcare when you’re only paying for a “smart” car.
Obama thinks we're all stupid. We can't see how much better off we are since he became king, er, president.
I don’t know this steel plant manager of course, and no disrespect intended. However, how can he ask this question? Does. he really think Obama knows or cares? The man’s a loser, a liar, a failure and a complete fraud. People bought into this hopeychangey thing TWICE! After 6 years, a record unblemished by succeess and having been exposed as an outright liar, hypocrite and a clueless, flaming narcissist that cares about no one but himself, how can anyone think he’s a real president? I should have bought kool-aid stock.
... because it is all part of the plan to bring chaos to bear so that my utopia will be realized in my lifetime.”
1. people usually start lying when they begin with "in fact" or "honestly"
2. Obama is saying health care costs are still going up? What happened (his words) to reducing plan costs be up to $2,500.00?
Obama answered, “The question is whether you guys are shopping effectively enough,”
It’s your fault, you are ignorant.
“because it turns out that this year, and in fact over the course of the last four years, premiums have gone up at the slowest rate in 50 years.”
Another Bald face lie.
That’s exactly what he’s saying. And watch for no results on finding the plant manager “a better deal”.
RE: And Obama told him he might not be “shopping effectively enough.”
The response is this — “OK I’ll bite, why don’t you or one of your “experts” show me how to shop effectively?”
Dude, dude, it’s just business, nothing personal...when the mafia is done with someone (e.g., they got your vote already), then they shoot you in the head or back. Hey, it’s just business.
Steel Plant manager to Obama: Why am I so stupid?
Obama is lucky to have left that steel mill in one piece.
“because it turns out that this year, and in fact over the course of the last four years, premiums have gone up at the slowest rate in 50 years.”
Obama gives a non-answer.
The question was about “health care costs”, which isn’t restricted to premiums alone. The rate of increase in premiums may (or may not) have slowed but the costs for actual health care have increased considerably when considering increased premiums, increased deductibles and increased co-pays...for everyone except the dependent class that is.
'backgrounder & audit'
My husband’s plan TRIPLED...>TRIPLED.....with less coverage!! Unless he gets pregnant!
I didn't say "Affordable Health Care".
I said "UN"-affordable Health Care".
You People should listen more closely.
His handlers have told Obama that health insurance prices are going down, so if anyone thinks they are going up, that person is stupid.
That’s the way Obama’s brain works. Like a little child.
This cannot be correct? Another Obama lie?
Coward-Pivan is in full swing
And they were supposed to drop by $2500 anyway.
He just pointed out that was a lie.
