WestVirginiaRebel Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Breitbart: The sharp jump in Obamacare premium rates for 2017 is staggering, but President Obama and Hillary Clinton are betting they can easily continue on the path to fully socialized medicine using other people’s money to hide the rate hikes. Obama’s signature healthcare law is offering Americans double-digit rate hikes and shriveled choices among fewer insurance companies in 2017. “Consumers will be faced this year with not only big premium increases but also with a declining number of insurers participating, and that will lead to a tumultuous open enrollment period” for Obamacare before 2017, says Larry Levitt of the Kaiser Family Foundation. As Kaiser notes, in the cities below, a non-smoking 40 year-old who makes $30,000 per year will see these jumps in monthly Obamacare rates in 2017, for a monthly middle-level, “silver” plan: Birmingham, Alabama 71% Phoenix, Arizona 145% Hartford, Connecticut 27% Washington, D.C. 22% Chicago, Illinois 48% Wichita, Kansas 46% Baltimore, Maryland 24% Minneapolis, Minnesota 55% Charlotte, North Carolina 40% Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 67% Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 51% Sioux Falls, South Dakota 45% Nashville, Tennessee 49% However, the Obama administration is telling people not to worry. ________ If you don't like your hikes, you can let somebody else pay for them...
