The REAL Cost of ObamaCare by Kirsten Kukowski

Like f  Like this on Facebook GOP.com Catherine, More bad news for President Obama. According to a new poll out this week, nearly 60% of Americans think that ObamaCare will result in higher health care costs for them and their family. And guess what – they’re right! Rather than reducing average American family insurance health premiums by $2,500 as the President promised, premiums have actually increased by over $3,500 since the law was passed. And the news only gets worse. As ObamaCare health exchanges prepare to come online, states are warning residents of rising health care costs. Residents of Florida and Ohio are preparing to see their rates rise by over 40%. Individuals in South Carolina could see their rates increase by up to 70%.  And some Wisconsites may see their rates jump by as much as 125%. So what can you expect ObamaCare to cost you?

REPLY: My family's health insurance premiums did go up.

Because my brother and I are now covered when otherwise we'd have been dropped. And I got dropped so many times in college (BEFORE Obamacare) it ain't even funny. I have enough insurance cards to wallpaper a room.

But the premiums aren't so high as they'd be if my brother and I were forced to get insurance on our own, which, being responsible Americans, is what we'd have had to do. You see, we believe in paying while we're healthy for services we'll use when we're sick. That is the purpose of health insurance.

Luckily, our insurance company saw the value of insuring young adults and extended the care to dental and eyes. Who knows, they might even extend coverage beyond the 26 years mandated by Obamacare. $20/pay period is nothing compared to what it could be for me.
