Are you implying that premiums are going up? Obama said they would go down and repeated such ad nauseum to get elected:

"I will sign a universal health care bill into law by the end of my first term as president that will cover every American and cut the cost of a typical family's premium by up to $2,500 a year."

Oh, but then Politifact said this about Obama's promise:

An independent health care analyst projects that premiums will go up for the typical family… We rate this a Promise Broken.
