_ that if you like your insurance, you could keep it," said Joe Hansen, president of the United Food and Commercial Workers International Union. "That is not going to be true for millions of workers now."
The plans are set to become exceedingly expensive, as ObamaCare requires coverage of pre-existing conditions and workers’ children up to age 26 with no annual or lifetime coverage limits.
Unions fear the higher costs will cause employers to drop the plans and send workers into state-run exchanges established by the law.

Legend has it that as Shoeless Joe Jackson was leaving the courthouse during the trial, a young boy begged of him,
"Say it ain't so, Joe,"

You mean Obama told an untruth when he said:
"If you like your health-care plan, you keep your health-care plan. Nobody is going to force you to leave your health-care plan."

BUT... President Obama’s labor-union allies once cheered for ObamaCare — but now they’re screaming mad.!

Outgoing Senate Finance Committee Chairman Max Baucus (D-Mont.), who helped write the law, has called its implementation a “train wreck.”
 
Those of us who make a living from Health care, i.e. EXPERTS have told you there ain't no such thing as a "FREE LUNCH".. someone has to pay!
And those experts of experts... the people that tell insurance companies how much the premiums should be, i.e. actuaries.. have said:

Chris Carlson, an actuary with consulting firm Oliver Wyman, estimates that a 25-year-old making $34,000 will go from paying about $2,400 a year to $3,200 for the same policy next year, even with subsidies. Others don’t expect such large increases, but it’s clear that some young, healthy people will see higher rates. Whether that eventually moderates will be a crucial benchmark of Obamacare’s success or failure.

The bottom line: As Obamacare goes into effect, some of the 15 million people who buy their own insurance face higher rates.

He didn't lie.

Those who don't pay can keep their own doctor.

Those who do pay will have to pay large sums of money to keep their doctor but no one is forcing them not to keep their doctor.

Unions have been snookered by the democrats just as have the blacks. The democrats have done the most hideous of things to the working man and blacks yet for some reason they both still support them.
