Was in a meeting with the consultant yesterday and she was asked how Obamacare was really going to affect us. She said it was going to get bad. Said that the whole thing was designed to fail (we knew that).
What I didn't know is that the Feds will begin to tax us on the part of the premiums that our employer pays. Beginning in 2011 the Feds will "track" those amounts and then in 2012 we'll have to "report" those amounts. Whatever that means.
“Beginning in 2011 the Feds will “track” those amounts and then in 2012 we’ll have to “report” those amounts.”

I purchase my own BCBS health insurance plan, have done so for more than ten years. I just found out this week that my plan is going up 35% a month! I’m sure it is a direct response to the passage of the health care bill.
