A recent analysis of nine states by the consulting firm Avalere Health found that average premium increases for the most popular kind of plan ranged from 5 percent in Washington state to 44 percent in Vermont.

Can anyone tell me why the increase in my state (WA)is relatively low? I do know that the premiums in absolute terms were not higher than other states to begin with.

My daughter, with whom I am estranged, is a far leftie and works for Blue Cross. If people start dropping it she could end up NOT working for them.

Two scenarios:

1. The regulators know Texas isn't going to any Dem in the election so they say “ok” to the increase since it doesn't matter how pissed off TX gets (to the Fed)

2. They say “no” and let Blue Cross implode thus paving the way toward single payer.

So it's a win win for the regulatory overlords. What's Texas going to do, secede?

If you like your plan you can keep your plan (with a 60% rate hike)

The average family will save $2500 a year (but then have to pay twice that in premiums)!

It’s the new order of things! Get used to having no money and being a slave to the government teat fellow Americans!

Resistance is futile. Your biological and technological distinctiveness will be added to our own! Individualism is irrelevant. Liberty is irrelevant.

This is the new order! Resistance is futile!
