Quote from nutmeg:

But obamacare was supposed to stop the rising cost of healthcare.

Perhaps Obama never said that but a whole lot of people were given that impression, most likely via the media with Barry's blessing, very typical of him to let the disinformation slide when it suit his agenda.

Oh, Obama said that alright. Besides, they didn't name the legislation "The Affordable Care Act" for nothing.

They should have called it "The Unaffordable Care Act."

Interesting.

You guys do understand (well, maybe you don't) that merely reducing the 2nd derivative of the rate of rising healthcare costs would result in immense savings over any significant period of years? And that what you're debating is the first, not the second, derivative?

ok, then tell me just why the fuck we are doing obamacare? the second derivative just went up

The average annual premiums in 2012 are $5,615 for single coverage and $15,745 for family coverage. Average premiums increased 3% for single coverage and 4% for family coverage in the last year. Consistent with recent years, average family premiums for small firms (3-199 workers) ($15,253) are significantly lower than average family premiums for larger firms (200 or more workers) ($15,980).

Quote from Mav88:



I=(2.19)^(1/9) = 1.09, or the increase per year was 9%

So the increase is only 3-4 % under Obama compared to 9 -13 % under Bush
