So, what ever happened to the O'Bomber lie that O'BomberCare would reduce insurance premiums $2,500 per family?Answer:
The same thing that's happened to O'Bomber's lie you could keep your current insurance policy if you liked it...PERIOD
The same thing that's happened to O'Bomber's lie you could keep your current doctors if you liked them....PERIOD
What's happened is these blatant lies have been exposed as the lies they were and are. One of O'Bomber's lies...."if you like your insurance plan...you can keep your insurance plan...PERIOD was the LIE OF THE YEAR.
And, O'Bomber droolers and Kool-Aid drinkers cheer O'Bomber's blatant lies. O'Bomber never told a lie his Kool-Aid drinkers didn't applaud. O'Bomber's blatant lies give the rest of America gas. Burp
Health insurance premiums up 39% to 56% under Obamacare
March 17 2014

Americans buying health insurance outside the new Obamacare exchanges are being forced to swallow premiums up to 56 percent higher than before the health law took effect because insurers have jumped the cost to cover all the added features of the new Affordable Care Act.
According to a cost report from eHealthInsurance, a nationwide online private insurance exchange, families are paying an average of $663 a month and singles $274 a month, far more than before Obamacare kicked in. What’s more, to save money, most buyers are choosing the lowest level of coverage, the so-called "bronze" plans.
The firm provided the costs to Secrets through their new online price index, which gives the averages of what people are paying for insurance sold through their system. In California, for example, some families are paying a high of $2,604 a month and in New York, $1,845.
The shocking surge in prices show what Americans not in Obamacare or covered by their employer are paying as they seek lower premiums. Typically, they are not eligible for the subsidies Obamacare offers those with low incomes.
"Premiums are increasing primarily because of the new required provisions for 2014 Affordable Care Act compliant plans, including guaranteed issue, essential health benefits, modified community rating and minimum actuarial values," said Brian Mast, spokesman for eHealthInsurance. "It is also likely that health insurance companies expected additional risk in the risk pool, because people with pre-existing conditions could no longer be denied coverage, and may have priced their plans higher to accommodate for this risk," said Mast.
B-b-but I though premiums would fall $2500 per year for the average family. At least that’s what our dear leader told us … dozens of times.
