Now, Gallup reports that from the first quarter of 2010 (when Obama signed Obamacare into law) to the third quarter of this year, 2 percent of American adults lost their employer sponsored health insurance. In other words, about 4.5 million Americans lost their employer-sponsored insurance over a span of just 18 months.

A close friend of mine who is single and middle aged has been paying for the most expensive out of pocket health insurance plan his company offers. He almost never goes to the doctor, but wanted the insurance in case one day he needed it. This year his company dropped that plan entirely due to it being a "Cadillac plan". All that money he spent over the last 10 years, down the toilet in his eyes.

Health care costs increases at my company went from trending about 6% a year, to 13% this year and the company projects even greater increases. Obamacare has been an all on attack against the working class and it is only going to get worse.

This is Obama's Amercia.

Wait till 2014, then your company will more then likely dump you into Medicaid system and pay the $2K penalty then the Sate of Florida will have to pick up the rest of the tab. Pretty cool huh? Now what some companies are going to do to avoid the $2K penalty, they will keep all but the very critical employees under 30 hours of employment. I think they get 40 employees that work 40 hours with no penalty if they are not insured, but if they have more employees under 30 hours, no (or minimal) penalty either. The "new" work week will be 29.5 hours. Say, isn't that getting close to European work hours per week? Or is that still in the 30s? Worker's paradise right here in Amerika, if you can find a job, and it kinda pays enough for food.
