Jason Furman says the real story is how much the growth in health care costs and cost sharing have slowed in the last few years.

“This past year, adjusted for inflation, premiums rose 2.3 percent. That’s one-third the rate that they were growing a decade ago,” Furman said.

“You just can’t blame everything in the health system on this law. It had a lot of problems before it, and it’s actually helping to make them better.”

Another cheerleading moron that needs to look at deductibles and out of pocket expenses involved with this law. It ain’t all about premiums or a dopey website.

Everything’s slowed, except the artifical injections of the 08 bailout and SNAP driving up food costs.

Unemployment = lower health care costs.
