Ben Neptun and his wife Charla are “furious” their family’s health insurance premium will be raised from $419 to $899 per month because of Obamacare.
“We will absolutely go in a hole with this change,” Ben said.
Ben, 36, and Charla, 34, are both home health nurses in Mobile, Alabama. They each make about $23 an hour and have spent the last year learning how to budget and recover from debt acquired in previous marriages. With a blended family of five—a 15-year-old, a 2-year-old, and a 10-month-old—Ben said “there’s no room for several hundred dollars extra per month” in their budget.
The Neptun family buys their insurance directly from Blue Cross Blue Shield and spends about $2,000 a year on health care for the family, not including the monthly premium. So when Ben received a letter from Blue Cross explaining health insurance rates were increasing to comply with the new Obamacare regulations, he was angry. The new regulations in Obamacare force healthy families like his to “spend a boatload for nothing,” he explained.

Who did he vote for?
Nothing?
Holders people and illegal aliens need your money, dude. That is where the extra money goes.
As Dr. Zhivago in the movie of the same name said when returning to Moscow after the civil war and found his mansion filled with Communists: “I guess it is only fair”.
Obama wants you to suffer, Ben. Obamacare, therefore, is a success. Might as well change yer last name to Dover.
Can't say for sure, but they live in Alabama, they're married, and Dad is has a high-and-tight. I'm guessing they aren't Obama voters. Obama voters wouldn't be complaining to a conservative publication anyway.
They work. Obamacare is designed to reward those who don’t work by making those that do work pay more.
He’s right. Even with the subsidy, he’s out an additional $350 a month:
That's the whole thing in a nutshell, Ben..............
Apparently Ben wasn’t aware that he is a producer, not a taker; therefore, Ben is “rich” by Demonic Party standards, someone to be punished. To the takers, the parasites that vote for the Demonic reps to steal money from producers to give to their worthless, pathetic, and ignorant a$$es, Ben is one of the 1%. Communism (aka economic justice) sucks, doesn’t it Ben?
The circumstances will differ but the bottom line is going to be the same for millions of families. A reckoning is coming. People will do what they have to do to survive.
Bankruptcy doesn’t get you out of having to play the game Obamacare.
They are just racist, rich Americans that care about no one else that come from a country that enslaved people.
All this government is about hate of American people. It is all liberals care about.
I just found that book yesterday, is in the book also?
Maybe I should read this thing?
yes it is
I don’t think bankruptcy will solve his problem. It would only complicate them even more............
