What this means for a typical family of four
$621 billion is a pretty eye-glazing number. Most readers will find it easier to think about how this number translates to a typical American family—the very family candidate Obama promised would see $2,500 in annual savings as far as the eye could see. So I have taken the latest year-by-year projections, divided by the projected population and multiplied the result by 4. Simplistic? Maybe, but so too was the President’s campaign promise. And this approach allows us to see just how badly that promise fell short of the mark. Between 2014 and 2022, the increase in national health spending (which the Medicare actuaries specifically attribute to the law) amounts to $7,450 per family of 4

0bama was wrong by$10,000.00.
His kind can’t do math.
By which I mean leftist.
But you can keep your doctor.(in your mind as a fond memory)
What difference does it make?
None, DWTS starts this week! The opiate is applied.
Never have so many been asked to pay so much for the benefit of so few. This is for Obama’s ego, and no amount of other people’s money is too much to pay for keeping it inflated.
The $7450 is over eight years. Still, promised savings have vanished.
As was said so accurately by Joe Wilson to Obama at the SOTU - “YOU LIE!!”

$7G plus, per year? They need to be specific for the comfort zone zombies. Or when they wake up it’ll be too late. The crew on ‘tge five’ were yelling for everyone to stop fighting. That once this goes through all that has to be done is for us to get all branches into conservative hands and repeal it. You know surrender and then take over. After the 47% gets happy with the handout, even though sen Cruz reminds us nothing handed out like this has ever been repealed
Moderation is like lukewarmness. Very destructive.
You will be lucky if you see a doctor and if he speaks ENGLISH! Healthcare modeled after Nazi Germany, ya think? Look to Auschwitz as the Liberal RAT model and their death panels with government agents deciding if you live or die. Reminds me of the Gestapo.
The sheeple would have had to be doing copious amounts of drugs to believe that this thing ever WOULD reduce their health care costs.
The beauty of it is the fact that Obama-voters, who in general live off the government (if they don’t “work” for the government then they’re on welfare or some sort of disability) don’t have to pay a thing. Only Conservatives will have to pick up the tab... so all is good in liberal-land.
I am still convinced the fastest way to rid the country of ObamaCare is to make sure it is 100% implemented on schedule. When people lose their jobs, have their hours cut, can’t find work, can’t afford coverage, then get fined on their income taxes, they will revolt like the blue-hairs did with the Medicare Catastrophic Coverage Act.
Rand Paul was on Fox and Friends this morning and this is exactly what he said
We are a family of two, but we certainly don’t have an extra $3500 hanging around for our health care, especially if it’s just for the system’s upkeep and we are not in need of the services.
Even if it’s over several years it is too much.
So do you no longer live in Texas—or are you no longer a redhead?
Exactly......
There is another way to "defund" Obamacare, a tax revolt, unfortunately most of America is not up for this. They are too afraid of losing what they have or not suffering enough........yet.
