They cannot do that. There is no way the GOP will allow a spending bill be voted on that includes funding for ObamaCare. It will live under its current funding or die on the vine.

Perhaps. However, we can already predict the left and the media message. "GOP hates sick people and Obamacare so much they won't pass funding for ___"

its what they do. They're dishonest.

Business Record: Insurers expect big premium increases shifting rates in 2014
You forgot to say the OP's a racist and it's Bush's fault.

Your in the super minority and the rambling, blubbering liberal Obamabots are getting quite annoying.

Logic and common sense here people.

A chronically ill person will use a hell of a lot more services then their $200 monthly premium will cover.

This is what the Dems say people wanted.
So now they need to shut up and open their wallets "for the good of the collective".
The village will be made to pay.
SO true and we had to pass it to know what was in it

I have had an HSA from 2005 to last year. I went back and added up my total healthcare spending at $7,500.00. Why did I even have insurance for all those years, ugh.....

But once again, Obama projected premiums to fall $2500 per family, and that was back in 2008 if I recall..

I guess thats just lousy leadership..

Right, and Obamacare will lower the average premium per family of $2,500.00. Oh, and if you like your plan you can keep it.
