It’s hard not to get a chuckle out of this – Premium increases | Obamacare | Daily Kos | Markos Moulitsas#more#more.
The problem…
My wife and I just got our updates from Kaiser telling us what our 2014 rates will be. Her monthly has been $168 this year, mine $150. We have a high deductible. We are generally healthy people who don’t go to the doctor often. I barely ever go. The insurance is in case of a major catastrophe.
Well, now, because of Obamacare, my wife’s rate is gong to $302 per month and mine is jumping to $284.
I am canceling insurance for us and I am not paying any fucking penalty. What the hell kind of reform is this?
Oh, ok, if we qualify, we can get some government assistance. Great. So now I have to jump through another hoop to just chisel some of this off. And we don’t qualify, anyway, so what’s the point?
WHINER. Perhaps you should visit a news site that’s not MSM or Progressive and you wouldn’t be surprised. Not surprised at all.
And if you don’t qualify for a subsidy, there is NO point. Do NOT use healthcare.gov if you don’t qualify for a subsidy.
Legal Insurrection brings the hammer down on the Kos kids…
While I sympathize with the Kos Diarist’s plight, he has no one to blame other than Democrats and some people in the progressive movement who put politics ahead of good policy and sold out for the sake of the Democratic Party and Obama.
While the Kos Diarist wasn’t expecting the price hike, Markos was. And Markos along with other “progressives” helped Democrats shove what Markos previously called an “unconscionable” mandate down everyone’s throat.
So if the Kos Diarist is upset, let me make a suggestion.
Send your inflated health care premium bill to Daily Kos.
Idealistic idiots.
