They are also inflated because insurance for you helps pay for non payers of others (self pay that don't pay). It's not right but it's always been that way. Government picks up some (DSH payments).

Anything government gets involved in: medical care, college tuition, etc skyrocket in costs, while things government doesn't get involved in like electronics and consumer goods generally maintain cost

Its another thing, like jobs, housing, etc that we pretend dropping 10s of millions of illegals into the system didnt impact.

Who do you think is paying for the birthing of millions of anchor babies? The hospitals? They make it up by charging paying customers and the insurance companies have to account for it.

Insurance is a scam. Health insurance is the biggest of scams. Regardless, long ago it was decided to allow particular people to take what they wanted without worry of cost since that would be spread out amongst the civilians. In the near future, if you own a pet, you will be required to purchase pet insurance.

I wonder if our political servants worry about their insurance costs or services.

I heard Trump has a plan to fix this. Should be out in 2 weeks or so.

Prior to Obama I was paying 1100.00 per month for 5 people. Now it’s 1800.00 for 2 people, same provider, same coverage except that 3 less people on it. Please eloquently elaborate for me how Obama health care reform didn’t cause this

I am a small business owner. None of my employees want to join in a company plan. They either have it through their spouses or just don’t care. We are talking about less than 10 people
Anyway I buy Blue Cross through an independent agent. I pay $1725 a month for my 15 year old son and I. I’m 55, and a single father in good health.

Obama may be gone but the worldwide damage he left is ongoing from healthcare issues to Arab Spring or it’s cousin the immigration crisis it hurried in

The Republicants share the blame at this point. They've had two trifectas and didn't fix it so it's just as much Thanks McCuckold.


And every time they show intent to address it, the Dems scream "THEY ARE KILLING CHILDREN AND GRANDMAS".

The pattern seems to be that when blue is in office, they pass financially unsustainable programs. When red tries to address it, blue screams to the sky about how red is racist, killers, fascists. Then blue gets in and passes MORE ridiculously disastrous policies.. rinse/repeat.

Insurances covered preexisting issues before Obama Care you just had to have a certain amount of people sign up for the insurance. I have a preexisting condition and I have always had insurance because I had a job . Preexisting conditions is just a thing democrats use to get people on their side for Obamacare.

You may want to investigate this graphic you posted. It may be a little misleading or just plain wrong

Premiums were consistently going up before Obama


Just looking at deductibles and you will know that they climbed at a much higher rate post ACA. 2006-2010 deductibles were 600-1000

Pots 2010 they jumped 50-100 percent. And have climbed steadily ever since. It’s not just about the premiums.

Fixed it. Obama Derangement Syndrome, run amuck. He hasn't been president for ten years, already. He shouldn't be blamed for today's healthcare snafui.
