White House Says Obamacare Premiums Will Rise By Double-Digits Next Year

Are they trying to crash this thing on purpose to bring on full socialized medicine?

It would be a Saul Alinsky-style move.

The Obama administration now says insurance premiums will rise by double-digit percentages in 2017.

Premiums will increase at an average of 25 percent across the 39 states serviced by the online marketplace healthcare.gov, according to the Obama administration, reports The Daily Caller.

This year’s expected increase is triple the size of 2016, and will have a direct effect on 16 percent of consumers who are not protected by subsidies, The Hill reports.

  2. People in favor of socialized medicine in the US always fondly point to Denmark. But the US is not Denmark: a smaller, relatively homogeneous population with a high degree of public trust. In the US it will mean top tier care for Congress and federal employees, but rationed DMV-like care for the rest of us.
