Just as many have been saying all along. Obamacare costs are going way up.


The cost of Obamacare could rise for millions of Americans next year, with one insurer proposing a 50 percent hike in premiums, fueling the controversy about just how “affordable” the Affordable Care Act really is.


The eye-popping 50 percent hike by New Mexico insurer Blue Cross Blue Shield is an outlier, and state officials may not allow it to go through. But health insurance experts are predicting that premiums will rise more significantly in 2016 than in the first two years of Obamacare exchange coverage. In 2015, for example, premiums increased by an average of 5.4 percent, according to PwC’s Health Research Institute.



The premium increases come at a tenuous time for Obamacare, which remains under fire from a Republican Congress that wants to repeal the law, while a Supreme Court ruling on federal subsidies for the health insurance looms in June as well.

Depending on the court ruling on marriage, I see not reason for single people not to sell their spouse and kid insurance.

There are so few in the ACA pools that the cost can't be kept low, and it is likely that many will loose their subsidies.

So lets say that you are single and working for a company that offers a good insurance plan. your cost is 200.00 a month. and the family plan would be 350.00 per month.

It would work like this you advertise the availability and the person purchasing the insurance fro you pays for the marriage license you go and get it signed and the sell that plan for 400 a month giving you a nice extra income

Why not.

Not enough people are enrolling and paying for this fiasco. The groups are too small.

No one is going to see that $2,500.00 decrease in premiums as the president promised.

The left is mostly silent on the failures of Obamacare. The ones who aren't silent make up false data in an attempt to profit it is a success. Those attempts fail because the truth is winning on this one.
