News, Insurance Rates to Surge Despite Reform.

[Jaggy001]

This is just going to make government run UHC more likely.

We are already seeing businesses reducing benefits and increasing the cost of health insurance to employees because it is becoming so expensive for them. At the same time, insurance companies are making it harder for young healthy people to get reasonable insurance. As these increased costs hit ordinary Americans where it hurst .... in the pocket ..... the pressure on politicians for real reform will get greater and greater.

It is amazing how financial reality changes the politics of people no matter whether they are liberal or conservative.
