For many families, health care relief began today. (premium, Obama, insurance)

Look at the picture of that 11 year old girl. Republicans want to repeal her? Republicans want to defund her?

The prophecy that voters would eventually come to like this law seems true to me.

My premiums just went up $300 a month. Relief? At what cost? We have no pre-existing conditions. I can only imagine what the cost of premiums with someone that has one is.

Taxpayer subsidies for the rich and poor alike. **** the middle class working people.

What about the other side of the coin? The millions of families that will see double digit increases in their coverage because of this "great" bill? I guess those people don't matter.

But don't you feel better knowing that you're helping others, I mean you weren't really going to use that $300 a month anyway right?

Relief my butt.


I have received notice that my health insurance will go up 637.00 starting next month.

Thanks dems for making me pay for someone else who wont work and EARN their own insurance benefits like many of us do.

Trying to make this a rep issue is plain silly.

Do you remember Michelle Obama who was an administrator at a hospital and turned away patients who did not have the money and or HC to pay for their services? But that is different right?

Yes I feel for her.

Why don't you adopt her? Or at least send a check every month. Then you can take care of her health issues.

Been happening here in Mass. for the last few years.Mine went up 40% this year alone. Any more and I'll be giving up my health care,it'll be cheaper to pay the fines. Good job you socialist scum!

Pre existing conditions could have been handled all by itself without screwing over people like me who purchase our own HC.

Sorry to break your whining period but being a conservative who is against any insurance company turning someone down for care if they have a pre existing condition.

I just tossed your theory right out the window.


I would like to see people EARN their benefits and give no one who is healthy enough to work a free ride.

And your wrong on the voters as well, 67% would repeal this HC bill in a heartbeat knowing it is full of pork, freebies, rewards, benefits and cost hard working people more money to help cover those who wont work.

This bill will be repealed and or changed a lot in time, wait and see.
