When the Democrats designed Obamacare they made sure the worst of it wouldn’t hit until after the 2012 election. They knew that if people realized what they had done to them it would hurt President Obama’s reelection chances. Now we’re going to start to really feel the nasty effects of the law, young Americans could be hardest hit.
A new study predicts that health premiums could increase as much as 40 percent for young adults once Obamacare goes into effect in 2014.
The concern, according to a study published in “Contingencies” magazine, is that an influx of relatively healthy people will tip the balance away from those with immediate health needs, which will drive up the cost for individuals between the ages of 21 and 29, The Hill reports.
“This means that close to 4 million uninsured individuals . . . can expect to pay more out of pocket for single coverage than they otherwise would, even given the availability of premium assistance,” the study’s authors wrote. (Read More)

Surprise, surprise! Everyone excepting the Wash. politicians, lobbyists and the libs knew this would happen. Those guys just sat back, enjoyed the periks of office and all of their junkets, and claimed they had no idea.
Anyone who claims to be a Moderate is just hiding the truth, he’s a lib in disguise. And, unfortunately, a significant of number of supposed Conservatives in DC are not what they claim. And it’s all because they lack intergrity and honesty; many will sell their souls to be included in the Wash. Post cocktail circuit
America, we can turn this around, but only if we force the govt. to acknowledge that what it touches usually turns into something I find by my horses in a pile. It’s only is good for fertilizer.
Thank God for the Pauls, the Lees, the Scotts, the Cruzes, the Rubios, etc. but we need more. Let’s make it happen in 2014; in the meantime, demand that the Rs in Congress stop appropriating money for garbage.
God save our country and return her to fiscal and moral sanity.
