The PPACA or Obamacare is another nail in the coffin for the
middle class Americans. The President
openly lied when he said people of already have insurance would keep it.
There are thousands of self-insured citizens who are
receiving or are going to receive cancellation notices from their
insurers. They will be allowed to
"re-enroll" but at a much higher cost. I watched on couple on TV who had been paying
$199.00/month plus a $3500.00 deductible.
Their new offer had the same deductible but the monthly cost was now
$638.00! The difference is because that
insurer will have to accept people with pre-existing conditions. Is it fair for that couple to be asked to pay
for someone, unknown?
Even though I know the aim is for everyone to be insured, I
don't think that a very good way to make sure it works. I have repeatedly said Obamacare will fail, I
am even more sure now. Low income people
will not enroll. A young man who works
part time at a "dollar store" that a friend and I talked to yesterday
at our coffee hour hadn't even heard of the Act. Young people aren't interested enough in
what's going on to watch the news! They
will not buy insurance even though it may be "free" for them (see the
young couple above).
CBS News is reporting on October 29th that over two million
policies have been cancelled or amended.
It is becoming more clear that this Obamacare law was written by and for
the benefit of the insurance industry.
The law simply is not what the public thought it was. Period.
