The Manhattan Institute just published an analysis of the Obamacare individual policy insurance rates demonstrating the average cost will rise by 41% next year. The results are very similar to the 2009 PriceWaterhouseCoopers analysis that predicted insurance rates would rise by 47%. The biggest hikes will hit the young people, where rates will jump by an average of 98% for men and 58% for women. Insurance rates will also increase for everyone who is healthy and for all males. Obamacares taxpayer-funded subsidies will primarily benefit those approaching retirement, despite substantially higher average net worth compared to the young. The real winners under Obamacare are huge insurance companies and HMOs whose stock prices have gone up twice as fast as the market, since Obamacare kills competition and creates monopolistic profits.

Selah.
But Obama said your rates would go down.
Of course, if your rates go down, you can’t keep your coverage.
Sucker.
All of which, of course, was completely predictable . . . hey, it was predicted. LMFAO and crying at the same time.
Nope, not doing it.
I will leave this rock before anything of the sort happens.
I guess that's because women make only $.58 for every $.98 made by men?
Just wait until next year when the delay in the employer mandate expires and as many as 129,000,000 will have lost their insurance. If anyone votes Democrat in Nov. ‘14, they deserve to live or die under Big Government’s boot.
The Democrats’ War on Men!!!!
2014, remembere every RAT who voted for this and then the ones who campaigned in support of it after it was shoved down our throats. The RATs are running off the Obama ship in the hopes that we will forget what they did, e.g., Landrieu in Louisiana
Predicted, and rejected with hands over their ears, by liberals who WANTED it to work.
We need to start asking:
WHAT is O’care demanding that makes current policies “non-compliant”?
Exactly WHAT is “better” about O’care?
Just because you will be issued an “Insurance Card”, if you have a “pre-existing condition”, DOES NOT MEAN THAT CONDITION WILL BE COVERED OR TREATED!!!
Yes, because maternity coverage is mandatory for EVERYONE! Yes, even males and even women over 60. What a bunch of f'ing d'bags we have in Congress and, more to the point, in this country - because we didn't toss Otraitor and the whole Dem Party last year. MORONS - we deserve what we get.
I'm just waiting to see the howls of outrage from the Otraitor robots - I will LMAO.
What I'd like to know, seriously speaking, is how it is that we can be forced to participate in a system that: a) exempts the President, Congress and the federal courts; and b) was adopted based upon fraud in the inducement?
Obamacare?
It should be called ZEROCARE.
