Health insurance premiums rising faster than wages | Fox News

 

[WillowTree]

The Obama administration expressed concern in 2009 about skyrocketing health care premiums in a report entitled, “The Burden of Health Insurance Premium Increases on American Families.” They were concerned that premiums had increased by 5.5 percent from 2008 to 2009.

However, from 2010 to 2011 in the first year after Obamacare was enacted, premiums increased by 9.4 percent.

“In 2009, when the [Executive Office of the President] issued its report, states had seen premiums increase on average by 30 percent between 2004 and 2009,” states the Freedom Partners report. “But since 2009, health insurance premiums have continued to grow faster than wages in nearly every state, averaging a 28 percent increase from 2009 to 2014, resulting in a greater amount of disposable income being consumed by rising premiums.”

My husband has been self employed since 95, I went through his premiums since 2001, and they rose 100 a year, and 100 a year since the ACA, actually they went down 100 a year when he first got on health care.gov.
I am so happy that he isn't tied into an insurance plan due to a pre existing condition. He is healthy but one can get dx with Cancer, Dm, among a hundred other things any day or have an accident.

Now the ones not insured are from the southern Rep states, esp. Texas. Cruz said better no Medicaid than having Medicaid, himand his gov and the rest of these nerds are sick people and Trump as well to want to kill the ACA to go back to what was before the ACA, in other words, nothing.

Or, join the Army, go to a war zone, get wounded and permanently disabled and Uncle Sugar will care for a person till they are pushing up daisies. Problem solved. Worked for me.

Ha Ha, Texas is just one of the southern rep states that has not expanded Medicaid which leaves many without health insurance of any kind. Only someone with a brain would know the ACA is good , while it has some kinks to works out, its beats anything the Republicans have ever done. Finally an end is in sight for those unfortunates who have a pre-existing condition. Only those self righteous Christians down south would say no health insurance is better than Medicaid. Christians are becoming more and more self absorbed righteous a holes. The tea party groupies, some of them need a brain transplant.

Well we always have. The big issue is , everyone at least, unless they are very low income, at least pay something for health ins. Before that they just didn't pay anything but still a person can get care in my state, if they go to the er at the hosp. Now the ACA has really stopped er's for headaches and instead people go to the doctor or reddy care which is cheaper than hosp . er's. Republicans are just pissed because finally a Democrat finally did something and they have done nothing. They still don't have a plan, except to go back to HSA's (which one can still do) and buy ins over state lines, which most major insurance companies have control over the US market and are global as well.
