“I Want People to Have Health Care. I Just Didn’t Realize I Would be the One Who Was Going to Pay for It.”

I wish I could say I’m surprised… “I Want People to Have Health Care. I Just Didn’t Realize I Would be the One Who Was Going to Pay for It.” | FrontPage Magazine.

Hate to break it to you….

Most people don’t understand this simple fact. When you want people to have something, you have to pay for it. It’s not going to be some imaginary 1 percent footing the bill.

Apparenty SF Bay area residents have been surprised by the cost of Obamacare…

Yet, like many other Bay Area residents who pay for their own medical insurance, they were floored last week when they opened their bills: Their policies were being replaced with pricier plans that conform to all the requirements of the new health care law.

Vinson, of San Jose, will pay $1,800 more a year for an individual policy, while Waschura, of Portola Valley, will cough up almost $10,000 more for insurance for his family of four.

…

“There’s going to be a number of people surprised” by their bills, said Jonathan Wu, a co-founder of ValuePenguin, a consumer finance website. “The upper-middle class are the people who are essentially being asked to foot the bill, and that’s true across the country.”

Mr Waschura is all for health care for everyone…

“Of course, I want people to have health care,” Vinson said. “I just didn’t realize I would be the one who was going to pay for it personally.”

Mr. Waschura, let me help you out, this is called a WAKE UP CALL. You don’t like paying an extra $10,000 a year for your health coverage? Hmmm, perhaps you should have been listening, the problem is your listening to the MSM, NPR and MSNBC.

Also, don’t forget, the health coverage you have is “garbage” so you should be glad to pay an extra $10,000 per year for REAL HEALTH INSURANCE.

Your vote, your unthinking mindset and your party is the problem. Look in the mirror as you write your premium check next year. You only have yourself to blame for the $10,000 hole in your families finances.

Added: ObamaCare: Too Soon For “I Told You So”?

Oh, there’s going to be a correction, but it’s going to be for the worse as insurers and providers drop out of the exchanges and doctors exit the market because of the hassle. There’s also the problem of convincing young, healthy people to sign up for expensive plans when they can hold out and wait until they need it. We’ve only just begun to see the damage caused by ObamaCare. It’s going to be a lot worse. Like we told you it would be.

Regarding being too soon for I told you so. I believe it’s too soon to take the exchange website out to the woodshed. But it isn’t too soon for those who are just now discovering sticker shock, a multitide of evidence was available that it was coming.
