Precisely. Rates went up only weeks after ObamaCare was passed because the insurance companies need to pad the bank to pay for the expected/unexpected consequences of the law. I have no delusions about that.

Oh, and also, I have to pay an extra $750/year just because we choose to put my wife on my insurance rather than her work's crappy insurance. Employees's who's spouses don't work/have an option for their own insurance, don't pay the $750.

I pay $750 more for the exact same insurance than a coworker who's spouse doesn't work. Discrimination? Perhaps...

Buy more food and ammo it's going to be a rough landing.

P.S. no doubt the insurance companies helped to craft this wonderful law

Ain't that the truth. And all these people who think this is a good idea, I have just one thing for them- I'll give them the rope and teach them how to tie the noose and they can find the tree, rafter, whatever and go hang themselves.

Forget it. If you have to teach someone over the age of 10 how to tie a slip knot, they wouldn't last long anyways. Don't give them piece of good rope. That stuff can be invaluable when needed.
