Obamacare is such a clusterfuck and Obama has unilaterally changed, delayed, and manipulated his own law so many times that insurance companies don’t know whether to shit or wind their wristwatch. When in doubt about what Obama will do next, just raise insurance premiums by 10% or more. The Savior has delayed the truly horrific aspects of the law until after the mid-term elections because we wouldn’t want the Democrats to take credit for this national disaster.
I had a doctor appointment on Wednesday and with no prompting from me, the nurse was blaming Obamacare for the huge increases in premiums and the deterioration of care. I also had to provide my driver’s license for the first time ever and they scanned it into some machine. I’m sure they are now doing this for my benefit and care.
Do you think the CEO of Aetna will be audited by the IRS in the near future?

Aetna: ‘On the Fly’ Obamacare Changes Responsible for Half of 2015 Premium Jump
America’s third-largest health insurer said on Thursday that customers can expect 2015 premium spikes that in some states will be “over double digits” because of the Obama administration’s endless “on the fly” Obamacare changes.
Aetna CEO Mark Bertolini told reporters that his company prefers to stay at its current level of Obamacare participation in just 17 states and said customers can expect health insurance premiums to climb, despite the Affordable Care Act. Specifically, Bertolini said that, depending on a customer’s state and the mix of sick versus healthy patients, customers should be prepared for insurance hikes ranging from “the very low single digits” to “some that will be over double digits.”
Aetna says the Obama administration caused so much uncertainty with its myriad regulatory changes that half of Aetna’s premium increases are due to President Barack Obama’s administration’s constant shifts in decisions, rules, deadlines, and regulations.
You have not seen anything yet, just wait for the tax increases. If you employer has insurance that you can purchase you will be taxed on the benefit and the amount of the tax like the alternative minimum tax is not inflation adjusted. So the 4000 to 6000 dollars that your employer gives you for health insurance will be taxed as income. Not sure when the tax starts but I would bet it is the beginning of 2015.
Things are about to get expensive.
Only 1000 days of Obama left until he’s out. Unless he gets impeached, or tried for treason, both of which should happen.

Obamacare is about screwing people with jobs to the wall, and giving free shit to 16 million more government-dependent parasites. Socialism in healthcare, another catastrophic disaster.
Healthcare premiums are going up double digits every year for decades. The HMOs can do whatever they want now, they’ve bought off the criminal politicians. There’s no limit to what they can charge now, because Obamacare says you gotta have health insurance. People are going to pay more for health insurance than their mortgage. You’ll have a job and work, taxed to death, Social Security and Medicare taxes going up, and no money for health insurance, so you’ll have to go without, while the FSA gets free healthcare. Obamacare, like all socialist programs, reward laziness and bad lifestyle choices, and punishes those that work for a living. Fuck Obamacare, and fuck Obama and the democrats.
Anyone with half a brain could see that Obama changing the rules every five minutes was itself going to raise premiums. Insurance companies have to price for the uncertainty, never knowing what that fucker’s going to do next.
The insurance companies & their lobbyists wrote the bill.
What did anyone expect?
