I paid NOTHING for family HI in the mid-90's.. By the time I retired in 2008 my family HI premium per month cost me almost $400 a month.. That was through my employer. Who knows how much their cost went up? In one year alone my premium increased over 20%... I promise you my pay didn't increase 20% that year..
Argue all you want about Obamacare, socialized medicine, insurance companies, private or government run HC.. All I know is what we had/have no longer works.. The average family can't afford those kinds of increase. My premiums went from 0 to $400 in about 14 years.. Another 14 years it might be $800-$1000 a month? In an economy that's 70% a service economy with most people making $10 an hour?
No f'ing way.. Something HAS TO BE done.. The GOP doesn't like Obamacare, come up with something else then. Millionaire Republicans who don't have to worry about costs telling Middle class Americans everything is OK the way it is now?
Fvck them..
