Oh I'm sure my health care will stay equally fabulous. The Mayo does a pretty good job. My coverage changed for the worse though, instead for 100% I'm at a 90/10 policy now and I even have to pay some out of my own pocket @ 183 buck. per pay period and a family deductible is now 3700.00 ... My raise barley covers it (4%/110k) I think I will have to can some more liberal minions to make up for my little bonus this year. Only a measly 10k. These Government jobs are getting tough

You do know that they operate on a profit margin of well under 10%, right? Most are under 5%. It's not like they're running a 70% margin or anything. Your suggestion that they're merely gouging "because they can" is pure nonsense. They raise their rates because they have to, and thanks to O'care, they have to raise them A LOT.

Yet, amazingly, I never heard anyone on the right complaining about it until the ACA.
People's premiums have gone up 100% or more in just one year. You can't tell me that is the norm. My copay shot up from $35 to see a specialist to $70.

Obots like to outright lie or stretch the truth just like their Dear Leader.
