Is it not funny to quote what CEO's of Health Insurance companies think about health insurance cost going up now that it has passed, when it went up 40% in some states before passing?

And will continue to do so until the private insurance is out of the reach of everyone and Obama has hois way that the government bears the full brunt. It's just the first in the walk towards total socialism, first the insurance, next the health care companies.
I understand you are new to the forums, welcome but please use the open threads instead of continuing to open new threads.
It is to be seen if cost continue or if they will be trending down now that Insurance companies are no longer able to abuse people, pick and choose who they want to cover, drop them if they get sick, etc.
Open threads get to long.
Are you sure anyone likes you there?

Not only that but people who had insurance will loose benefits especially prescription drug coverage.
Health Care Legislation - the impact on businesses - This came out yesterday, and represents announcements from just 3 companies, of the hundreds of large companies which are likely affected:
John Deere and Company is going to take a $150 million charge this year, while Caterpillar will take a $100 million write-off. The press releases cite the elimination of government subsidies for retiree prescription drug benefits. With the ending of government subsidies for this benefit, the companies are now on the hook for these expenses, and they need to book this loss today. A reader who has a relative working for Caterpillar has told me that the head of the company has told workers that the $100 million write-off will result in more job losses, to offset this new cost. The Bloomberg story on this mentioned that the new health care legislation is going to cost American business $14 billion. AK steel has come out and said that the change in tax breaks for employee drug benefits will cost them $31 million right away.

You do know the difference between Insurance companies and health care providers right? It's not the insurance companies raising the cost.
Personally, if I'm the only one living in my own little world, I don't care if you like me or not. Please don't immediately get on the forums and turn into an insult robot. There are enough of them on both sides of every issue already. Can you state your opinions without personally attacking those with opposing view points?
I am sorry but I did not know how many were living there or how many voices you are hearing. I like you. People is plural.
Have any of you been to your doctor since he signed this crap in? I think Obnama is in that little world too. One that most everyone else with sense is not.
