‘It’s Either Eat or Buy Health Insurance’ = Obamacare Tax Increase

[WhiskeyGirl]

After the break, Beck took a call from Bryan in Florida, who says his costs have already skyrocketed in the wake of the Affordable Care Act.

“Our insurance for the family plan…our current cost is $127 a week through United Healthcare which, you know, we have a really good plan,” Bryan began.  “Well, my wife went in early this morning, they went over all the different options. The same plan for my family — nothing in our life has changed, everything is the same — is now $237.10 a week.”

But the jump from $127 a week to $237 a week isn’t even the worst of it, he said. Even if they opt for a plan that’s not as good as what they currently have, they’ll still be paying more than they were before.

I wonder how many were complaining about paying $127 a week?

“The cheapest plan — which is way higher deductible than what we have now, less coverage — is still $178 a week,” Bryan remarked.  “Now, mind you, my wife makes $35,000 a year. So if we kept with the same plan, that means 1/3 of her total income would go just to have the same insurance that we’ve had for the last four years at $6,000 a year.”

Beck sarcastically responded that those “damn insurance companies” are “gouging” him — predicting that many will blame the insurance companies, not the government for the changes.

What's wrong with this picture?  Imagine an Obamacare tax consuming one third of your income?  Spending one third of your day working for Obamacares ripoff?
