This is outrageous for this white family to have to mandatory abide by this or be penalized if they don't. You have to ask yourselves why are politicians funding a program that the American people do not want? Everybody I know is getting word that their health insurance premiums are not decreasing but rather tripling in price. This is going to financially destroy the middle class. The A.C.A. doesn't stand for 'Affordable Care Act'. It stands for 'Affordable Con Act'.
One man's ObamaCare nightmare | Fox News
Andy and Amy Mangione of Louisville, Ky. and their two boys are just the kind of people who should be helped by ObamaCare. But they recently got a nasty surprise in the mail.
It had stunning news. Insurance for the Mangiones and their two boys, which they bought on the individual market, was going to almost triple in 2014 --- from $333 a month to $965.
The insurance carrier made it clear the increase was in order to be compliant with the new health care law.
"This isn't a Cadillac plan, this isn't even a silver plan," Mangione said, referring to higher levels of coverage under ObamaCare.
"This is a high deductible plan where I'm assuming a lot of risk for my health insurance for my family. And nothing has changed, our boys are healthy-- they're young --my wife is healthy. I'm healthy, nothing in our medical history has changed to warrant a tripling of our premiums.
"Well I'm the one that does the budget,” said his wife. "Eventually I've got that coming down the pike that I gotta figure out what we're gonna cut what we're gonna do, to afford a $1,000 a month premium."
Their insurance company, Humana, declined to comment...
