A local news station brings viewers inside one Pennsylvania company as the employees their learn about their new health care plans under Obamacare:
"Look at the numbers," says the reporter of two employees. "Jeff and Dave used to have a $1,250 deductible. Since Obamacare went into effect, it's now jumped 60 percent to $2,000. That's nothing compared to Brian, Kristi, and Judy who have kids. They are going to pay twice that, four grand." The reporter adds that co-pays are being increased, too.

we can't afford this, we can't afford to pay these co-pays, to pay these deductibles on what we're making," says one of the workers.
Suck it up, bud. You didn't have a problem voting for Obama when you thought *I* was going to pay your co-pays and deductibles for you. How does it feel having "some skin in the game"?

Excellent video series, with one exception - I cant help but think that, given all of the cameras in the room filming them, the employees were already briefed on the changes before filming.That may well be true, but does it change anything?
