One wonders if disclosing the rate increases for Obamacare now is a stealth campaign by Obummer to sink Hillary’s chances. If so, I’m all for it, and it’s the only Obummer move I agee with..
When is the employer mandate scheduled to hit? They kept pushing that back.
Good thing unemployment is so low, so that people can pay their skyrocketing premiums from their minimum wage and part time work.
Our office works with group health insurance. One of the group gals this morning was saying that the renewal for one of their plans has come in at 47% premium increase for 2017.
If any congressperson says they want to replace obamacare you know they are not serious unless they are campaigning strongly for Trump. President Hillary guarantees it will not be replaced unless it’s with “Clinton Single-payer Care”. She will NEVER allow replacement or non-progressive fixes.
If they (Ayotte, Ryan, etc) are not endorsing and fighting for Trump they are not interested in replacing obamacare - it doesn’t happen without him.
Good thing it’s plastered with the name “Obamacare” or anybody but him would catch blame.
It was always interesting how the biggest cost increases, for anything really, are always scheduled for when they’re out of office.
And the Arizona Republic just happens to have endorsed Hillary just before all this became public? And all the media ballyhoo about them never endorsing a Democrat too. Ha ha ha, their timing wasn’t too good!
Here’s the scoop from Jack Porosbiec (Citizens4Trump special projects director) in his online update (Periscope) yesterday morning. You can search his twitter @JackPorosbiec to see it.
He said the media is NOT talking about the insurance letters that people are receiving about their Obamacare premiums going up 25%-100% because it’s very bad for HRC. The voters ARE going to blame her at the polls and Obama, and rightly so.
So why were the letters sent out now? Jack said originally the insurers were happy because everyone was forced to buy their products and they saw big profits coming. However healthy people are refusing to pay for it, and are willing to incur penalties to avoid it, and so Obamacare is in the predicted death spiral. The insurance companies have been losing multi millions of dollars instead of making huge profits and so now they’re really ticked at Obama and Hillary. These premium letters sent just before the election are their REVENGE.
Sounds very logical to me.
Rather than say Hilly will scrap Obamacare & institute single payer (which she will), I think it is more effective for Trump to say that with Hilly as President & having the ‘veto pen’, there is NO way for Obamacare to be repealed and replaced. The sheeple will accept single payer & some (Left/Progs/Dems) will like it a lot & want it to happen .... very few like Obamacare when the rates are gob-smacking them in the face, & getting RID of Obamacare, including the hated mandate that fines you for not buying something you cannot afford or does not making economic sense to afford, is what most would like to see. Put Hilly front and center as obstructing replace/repeal & I think most folks can ‘get that’ in a hurry.
AMERICA stop electing these pie in sky socialist who promise you ‘hope and change’... especially based on something as stupid as their race or sex?
Any short term gains you may have gotten are not worth it...in the long run you are hurting everyone...including yourself!
