The UNaffordable Care Act by Kris Anderson

Catherine,
Obamacare was supposed to make health care more affordable for most Americans, but it is doing the opposite. The more we learn about the costs associated with this law, the more we see how detrimental it will be for our country.

In short, the “Affordable Care Act” isn’t so affordable after all. This is why we need your help.

Contribute $25, $50, $100, or whatever you can today to help us repeal this disastrous law. 

Thanks,

Kris Anderson
RNC Research Director

Reply: Your first two "By the Numbers" are opinions only. They are not based on any fact except what the people polled THINK will happen. As the program has yet to be implemented, actual effects are as yet unknown.

$255 increase in household premiums every month. WHY? Convince me that insurance companies aren't artificially increasing rates because they can blame it on the law. 

Why will 7 million people lose their employer based health insurance? What changes are being made BY THE LAW which makes employers who could afford to offer insurance suddenly not? Or, again, are employers dropping coverage simply because they can blame it on the law rather than because they expect it to cost them more?

How about providing some different numbers? Such as the total amount spent on health care last year alone? How much of that was out of individuals pockets? How much by insurance companies? How much by the government? How much are health care costs expected to rise in the next few years? What are THOSE projected increases in premiums?

Which costs more in the long run: an insured person or an uninsured person?
