    So I did my taxes today. My health insurance premiums were over $16k this year. My employer paid $10k, the rest was on me. I also paid $1,200 out of pocket.

    As an example the year before the AHCA that same policy was $8k total.

    How is this guy's only legacy piece not a piece of shit?

    Your employer should shop it's medical insurance. Ours has gone up about 10% total since 12. We did switch carriers in 2014 and threatened to do so again this year.
    The Federal Government?
    You have the wrong job if you work for the federal government and are on the hook for over $800 month.

    While Obamacare hasn't been successful at controlling health care costs, it has slowed the growth.

    Under Bush, the average family premiums (including both what employers and employees pay) went up $4,677 in his last six years in office, from 2002 to 2008, an increase of 58 percent. That $4,154 growth under Obama is a 33 percent increase. If we look at Bush’s first six years, the discrepancy gets even bigger: From 2000, the year before Bush was first inaugurated, to 2006, the average family premium went up $5,042, or an increase of 78 percent. (See Exhibit 1.11 on page 31 of the KFF report for these numbers.)

    $6,000 ÷ 12 = $800?

    Is your dick 17"?
    My maff is wrong some days. But I still think your story is bullshit.
    Only because you're Chuckie Schumers new fluffer and he hasn't authorized you to think any other way

    I think we should go ahead and trust the assholes who lied about Obamacare on single payer. I'm sure they will tell the truth this time

    $500 for his wife and kids' coverage is my guess.
    I was referring to insurance for the exact same coverage going up from $8k in 2012 to $16k in 2016. On a federal government plan.
    2011 to 2016, but still.

    You mean the small, homogeneous societies that have us pay their defense? Actual facts or liberal lore?

    Like I said, why anyone would trust the same lying assholes is beyond me

    I still don't get why they can't just look at every other developed country, do a quick analysis on costs for the government per person and cost to the person against quality of healthcare. Then whichever model is most efficient just copy the damn thing.
