TRT, I hope you are just trolling, and not actually believing any of the hog wash you post on here.

Premiums have been skyrocketing long before ACA was ever brought up. I feel many of you are attacking the wrong aspects of the ACA, because that is what your corporate masters from Fox and other media aspects have told you is wrong.

Premiums, Healtcare costs, and debt have all been rising uncontrollably for a solid decade now. It has reached a point that it can no longer be maintained. As the middle class continues to shrink as the manufacturing jobs that built the middle class continue to disappear to the far east, more and more people are becoming dependent on help from the govt and other sources. These people still get sick, their kids still get sick, they come to the ED. Hospitals, MD's, and so on make no money, and lose tons of money on these patients. That cost is shoved on to TRT, Bob Seger, Beetle, and the rest of us.

It's hard to stand against a complete overhaul of healthcare system in this country when over the last decade costs have skyrocketed so high, that hardly anyone can afford to get sick, hospitals are completely understaffed due to lay offs and financial problems. Premiums are skyrocketing that companies can no longer afford to offer their employees quality health coverage. All the while, Insurance companies are seeing records profits, and their profits have more than tripled in the last decade.
