BCBS has been trying to significantly raise their rates forever. I wouldn't go with that company for anything. Our teamster plan does not even offer it. But now they are going to make things really bad for a lot of people. I would not blame this on Obama Care but on BCBS GREED!

Who would bankrupt the country? Those same folks (after all, corporations are people now) that cried they would lose their asses?

Remember the big outcry by the big medical corporations how they would lose their asses? I was at the front stating they wouldn't lose anything. How did that pan out?

I am not giving up on the idea of affordable health care. I have given up on turning greed into compassion.

Honey, The ObamaCare Health Insurance Exchanges are a joke. They are deigned to take down legitimate insurance companies. The plan is to gravitate those who cannot afford their health plan to ObamaCare and that will bankrupt the average working stiff
You cannot win
