Obamacare already 30% over projected costs (Congress, Pelosi, healthcare, premium)

[KUchief25]

"House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Dave Camp, R-Mich., wants to know by Monday why the estimated cost of helping millions of middle-class Americans buy health insurance has jumped by about 30 percent for an eight-year period, from 2014-2021.

Administration officials say the explanation lies in budget technicalities and that there are no significant changes in the program that would raise concerns."


Just technicalities. Nothing to see here folks. Don't worry we still got two more years to find out how much this mess is really going to end up costing. Just another technicality I'm sure. When all is said and done it will be the final nail in our coffin.

Wait a minute there...hold the presses.

These few years of pre full Obamacare were supposed to be for savings that would pay for when Obamacare kicked in.

And our premiums were going to decrease 3000%. The CBO said it was doable..the Dems promised we'd love it.

What the heck happened ???? (besides reality)

Every country who has government healthcare shows major loses. The argument becomes the cost-benefit.

I don't think anyone should be surprised about these numbers.

According to Pelosi, "we must subject every tax payer dollar that we spend with the toughest scrutiny." I am sure that makes you warm and fuzzy.
