Obamacare Nightmare Begins: Younger Americans’ Health Insurance Premiums Could Go Up a Mind-Boggling 169%!

At his press conference Tuesday, President Obama assured Americans that, “To the 85-90 percent of Americans who already have health insurance: They’re already experiencing most of the benefits of the Affordable Care Act even if they don’t know it.”  Many younger folks are NOT paying attention to Health Care costs, since they don't use it much.

Already, they are well on their way. For example, California health insurers are proposing increases for some customers of 20 percent or more: 26 percent by Blue Cross, 22 percent by Aetna, and 20 percent by Blue Shield. In Maryland, Care First, the state’s largest insurer, has proposed a 25 percent increase for next year. Younger and healthier Americans can expect to pay even more. According to a survey by the American Action Forum, healthy young people in the individual or small-group insurance markets can look forward to rate increases averaging as much as 169 percent.

Young people will pay higher premiums for  Health Care, or pay penalties for NO COVERAGE AT ALL! Is this not like a "Tax?"  Younger folks will be carrying the load for the "freeloaders."

Since Maryland is a Tax Everything State, you could call this the "Youth tax,"  thanks Obama.  And you thought the O'Malley "Rain Tax" was ridiculous huh?

So when will Young People get smart and stop their fantasy love-fest with the progressives/liberals who brought them ObamaCare and other ridiculous taxes?

No doubt Americans are also failing to appreciate the more than $1 trillion in new taxes over the next 10 years that were put in place to finance the new [ObamaCare] law. (source: The CATO Institute.)

It seems to me it is time for younger folks to take a closer look at their economic liberty and freedoms being wilted away by the so called "progressives."

The Republican Party is fighting for your economic liberty and freedom.
