People suffer big sticker shock buying Obamacare now!

In a broadcast today, Rush Limbaugh reveals a NY Times article about how a couple with two kids looked into buying health insurance. They could hardly believe when the cheapest plan was $30,000 with a $10,000 deductible for this next year. A staggering premium indicates Obamacare has already imploded.

Limbaugh goes on to also reveal the subtext of the article which is designed to bully senators into doing away with the idea to kill the Obamacare mandate in the Tax Reform set to be negotiated next week. “The article now blames Trump for this implosion... it was designed to implode!” states Limbaugh.

If you remember, even the architects of Obamacare stated earlier this year, premiums would skyrocket in order to further push the country towards a single-payer system. This system has failed miserably in many European countries and Canada before Obamacare came into existence. Furthermore, when Romney attempted to do this in Massachusetts while governor, it also failed like its European counterparts.

Obamacare didn't implode, the GOP sabotaged it. Clearly at the expense of the American people.

And of course the democrats and the media are leading on that it's all Trump's fault. Since the democrat voters are the epitome of ignorance they believe this even though us intelligent well informed people said this was going to happen well before obamacare was even law.

We live in Worcester County,I am covered by Medicare but my wife is too young for that. We own a small business so we can't get coverage from an employer because that is us. The only policy available for her is CareFirst Blue Cross/Blue shield. The premiums will be $1,400 per month with a $6,500 deductible! That's $16,800 in premiums plus the deductible, a total of $23,300 before she gets any benefit from it! Tell me why this is such a good deal.

Again I get to say I told you so, I guess you clowns need to learn the definition of what reality is, versus what a conspiracy theorist is... The difference here, is I live in reality, and I base my stuff off of evidence and history, you clowns, base everything off of he said she said, the media said crap, and that is why you are in this mess, and rightfully deserved too...

I am glad this crap is happening, because now this becomes a lesson to you all, an education if you will... And you think this single payer system is where it is at? Think again, the govt is saying what it wants right to your face, and when do they ultimately do anything good for the citizens without doing anything for themselves, the politicians...

I hope it gets so damn expensive and high of cost you lose your home for it, after you can't pay either the tax oops I mean fee, or when they take your bank account or put a lien on your house for it... Maybe then you will wise up and start to listen???? probably not though, you are that stupid... Because after all, remember, it was the people not on any type of insurance was what cost everyone so much right? Remember?? Funny how, now everyone has to have insurance, aka an monopoly, and are forced to buy it, and yet the cost has never gone down since its inception, and now you have the govt saying this was the intended purpose to get single payer system, where it will be even more costly to you... But I'm just a conspiracy theorist who is lives in reality, and is right every damn time, and still counting.

Life is fine in the ivory tower, but they just don't get it for the rest of us.

3:51 single payer systems have been proven time and time again to be cheaper in the long run. Perhaps if your reality wasn't in an alternate hillbilly universe you'd know that

You are joking right? You can't be that ignorant but if you are do yourself a favor and go and crawl back into the sewer from which you emerged and keep you mouth shut so you don't spread either what is your sheer ignorance or your lies. The GOP did nothing to obamacare-you incredibly stupid waste of oxygen. Obamacare is all on the democrats and just like every thing else they have ever done has been a complete failure. Democrats are useless garbage who have never and will never serve any positive role in society.

Lawyers and insurance companies are to blame. Other countries don't have these sky high costs for medical care or prescriptions.

2:39 You have no idea what you are talking about. I am assuming you have health care through your employer but for those of us that don't we can tell you a different story. Obamacare has been imploding for the last few years. Obama lied and the GOP had nothing to do with it. My health insurance for my family was reasonable until the affordable care act took effect. Fast forward to today and I can no longer afford $1400 a month for a family of 3 with a 7500.00 deductible. My premiums tripled along with my deductible since Obamacare took effect. Put that in your pipe and smoke it.

3:51 Your ignorance abounds lmao. Your comment is ripe with plain old lies because you don't have a clue what you are even talking about. One of your many inaccuracies is the fine for not being insured. They cannot take your house or your bank account for not having insurance you freaking idiot. They can only take the fine through tax refunds. Damn educate yourself before you break that arm patting yourself on the back 😂🤣
