oh well huh, YOU were warned you and were DUPED again. just think all you who voted for it ......now pay up

SNIP:
Remember when Barack Obama said Obamacare will cost you less than your cell phone bill?



Yeah, that was another lie.

Now we know that bureaucratic costs of Obamacare will cost the country more than $270 billion over the next decade “over and above” what would have been expected if the law had not been enacted.

America got Grubered again.
The Hill reported:

Five years after the passage of ObamaCare, there is one expense that’s still causing sticker shock across the healthcare industry: overhead costs.

The administrative costs for healthcare plans are expected to explode by more than a quarter of a trillion dollars over the next decade, according to a new study published by the Health Affairs blog.

The $270 billion in new costs, for both private insurance companies and government programs, will be “over and above what would have been expected had the law not been enacted,” one of the authors, David Himmelstein, wrote Wednesday.

Those costs will be particularly high this year, when overhead is expected to make up 45 percent of all federal spending related to the Affordable Care Act. By 2022, that ratio will decrease to about 20 percent of federal spending related to the law.

The study is based on data from both the government’s National Health Expenditure Projections and the Congressional Budget Office. Both authors are members of Physicians for a National Health Program, which advocates for a single-payer system.

“This number – 22.5 percent of all new spending going into overheard – is shocking even to me, to be honest. It’s almost one out of every four dollars is just going to bureaucracy,” the study’s other author, Steffie Woolhandler, said Wednesday.

Government corruption, plain and simple. The entire health care profession is a scam, a huge con. But, what can one expect from the anti-America Washington Brotherhood? Yes, voters are getting exactly what they asked for. Yes, voters are to blame and no one else. Yes, voters do this each and every election cycle, yet expect a different result. Yes, voters will never learn. Yes, we're all paying for what stupid voters do, and have done. This entire nation is falling apart because voter continue to elect and to re-elect professional politicians to run government. The cost of health care is just one example of the damage caused by those we've entrusted with the well-being of this once great nation.

It's my guess, and I'd bet the farm on it, that come November 2016, voters will one again elect and re-elect professional politicians to serve in Washington. We'll be paying for Obamacare, senseless deadly costly wars, and other debt for many generations to come. Just wait until a report comes out detailing the cost of illegal immigration. It'll be shocking, no doubt.

Health insurance premiums have gone up, deductibles have gone up, co-pays have gone up, coverage has decreased, and it's getting harder to get appointments. In addition, we have one of the worse records for health care among developed nations. Over 400,000 die each year from infections while in hospitals. A tiny filthy hospital room cost $1,800 a day. Hospitals charge $5.00 for an aspirin. Hospitals charge $35.00 for a meal that most people wouldn't feed to their dog. Doctors charge $300.00 for an office visit that consist of a ten minute conversation that could've just as easily been done over the phone. The entire health care profession is nothing more than a scam.
 
No surprise. You couldn't write a worse bill if you tried.

It was written by insurance companies to pack their own pockets with your money. Anyone with a different plan was not allowed at the table.
