The Eleventh Day of Obamacare

$2,100 Premiums Raising:  According to a Congressional Budget Office analysis, the health care legislation will raise individual health insurance premiums by an average of $2,100 per family.  This increase for struggling American families comes despite candidate Obama’s frequent promises that his health care plan would LOWER premiums by $2,500 per year for an average family – meaning the gap between candidate Obama’s rhetoric and President Obama’s legislation stands at a whopping $4,600 per family.

On the eleventh day of Obamacare, the government gave to me:

$2,100                                   Premiums raising

$310,800,000,000              Costs a-soaring

35,000,000                           Coverage dropping

222                                         Rules a-waiving

40,000,000                           Forms a-filling

7,400,000                             MA benes losing

0                                              Oversight hearings

159                                         Boards and programs

16,500                                   IRS agents

21                                           Federal lawsuits

And a health insurance mandate “fee”
