Looks to me healthcare increases each year about the same amount, so what was the excuse for the increases before ACA, before you right wingers had Obama to blame?

Find it yourself.

If you wanted to know, you would already know. But you don't, you only want to post the propaganda from the party.

I found the numbers and they don't back up your lie, which I have found to be a common trait from you, so I am not surprised your numbers are founded in fiction, just like my unicorn farm.

No, you just "found" the party's talking points blast email again.

Are you a scientist?

I ask, because I am not a scientist. Since I am not a scientist, I have to rely on people who are to tell me about global warming. And the overwhelming majority of scientists, from all over the world, affirm that global warming is real and that human activities are driving it.

Why do you believe a handful of climate cranks, talk radio hosts and bought-and-paid-for shills of the fossil fuel industry instead of every reputable scientist on the planet?

Health care spending growth remains low - Jan. 6, 2014

Does Obamacare Deserve Credit For Slowing The Growth In Health Care Spending? - Forbes

Growth in U.S. health spending continues at historically slow rate, despite improved economy | Modern Healthcare

If Slow Rate Of Health Care Spending Growth Persists, Projections May Be Off By $770 Billion | David M. Cutler

Officials: Slower health spending growth may boost jobs

It is truly astonishing the level of make believe that exists in conservative policy analysis. Health care spending growth has slowed. This is objective reality.

Another example of how they run from "0bamacare" and fling the new, improved "ACA" around.

Too funny.

Burden of proof.

You make the claim; you substantiate it.

Before the ACA those price increases were economic freedom.

Now those same price increases are slavery caused by the ACA.

conservatives don't care about reality when it comes to public policy.
