According to the McKinsey report referenced by Howard Dean
30% of small businesses will not be able to provide health insurance owing to excessive health care regulations resulting from ObamaCare.
If your retired now and have a medicare supplement provided by your employer it may well disappear?
Folks ObamaCare has to be repealed

I've read these rates before. Percentage wise, yes, a big jump in the third and fourth year. Actually those insurance prices are bargains. Try going to an insurance company such as BCBS or Aetna and get that rate. My daughter pays $260 a month, big copay, no office visits.
$247- that is about $8 a day. 2 martinis at the watering hole. The cost of 4 golf balls. $2 more a day than my cable, internet, and phone bill.
Now if your Social Security was your ONLY income and you made $1200 a month, that is a different story.... but you wouldn't be living in TV.
It is never mentioned who really wins on all of this... the insurance companies who line the pockets of both parties with donations.
