Recently former South Carolina U.S. Senator Jim DeMint, president of the Heritage Foundation, told an audience in Franklin, Tennessee, in reference to Obamacare, “Folks, we can’t allow this plague to come onto the American people.”
Today the Kaiser Family Foundation released a study detailing exactly what will happen to the American people when the Obamacare “plague” fully goes into effect January 1, 2014. Here is some of what the data from 17 states that have made the information public shows:
A 25-year-old making $25,000 a year in Baltimore faces a premium for good health insurance through the new Obamacare marketplace (exchange) of $80 a month. (GASP!)
A Baltimore family of two 40-year-old adults with two children with a total income of $60,000 would pay $164 a month. (YIKES!)
While the premiums will be different in each state, Kaiser found that overall the premiums are “lower than expected”.
On October 1st the American people will be able to go into the insurance marketplace and see what coverage, premiums and subsidies the Obamacare plague has for them. I can’t wait.
Let the plague begin.
