A new and independent analysis of ObamaCare warns of a ticking time bomb, predicting a second wave of 50 million to 100 million insurance policy cancellations next fall -- right before the mid-term elections.
The next round of cancellations and premium hikes is expected to hit employees, particularly of small businesses. While the administration has tried to downplay the cancellation notices hitting policyholders on the individual market by noting they represent a relatively small fraction of the population, the swath of people who will be affected by the shake-up in employer-sponsored coverage will be much broader.
An analysis by the American Enterprise Institute, a conservative think tank, shows the administration anticipates half to two-thirds of small businesses would have policies canceled or be compelled to send workers onto the ObamaCare exchanges. They predict up to 100 million small and large business policies could be cancelled next year.

All the Republicans have to do for campaign ads is run over and over again 0bama saying “if you like blah blah blah”
This “wave” would be happening right now if not for Obama’s illegal decree delaying implementation for large corporations.
Where is Congress? Why are they allowing this usurpation of Congressional authority? Where is the Speaker of the House? Why isn’t he demanding Obama obey the law?
Don’t postpone anything. Let it hit people and hit em where it hurts. They voted for this.
Think anybody will have the balls to ask Carney point blank about this? Even better, how about this question the next time obama has a press conference, assuming he ever has one again?
HM—where did you get that? Is it a bumper sticker?
And not a single republican voted for the bill. ONLY DEMOCRATS! Needs to be in every ad!
Obama lied. People will die.
I just met with my insurance agent at lunch, my plan and all my “Consultants” are forced into Obummercare, I have no choice as no plan is exempt after 1-1-14. I have a 4000.00 deduct now and pay $1200.00 a month, New program is 6,000 and is $2200.00 a month. I am blessed and can handle this but SH T is about to hit the fan. My agent said every program he works with from 2 to 50 employees are seeing these increases. The amount of money being drained from the economy is going to tank it.
People will not put up with this and they will take it out on Dems. This is going to be repealed I guarantee it.
$6,000 deductible and 1,000.00 more per month. Sorry
Absolutely! This is what the stupid Democrat voter supported by voting for Obama and his Democrats. I wish I could see their faces when the cancellation letters arrive and they discover that any new policies will cost three times as much with huge deductibles and with much less coverage.
Unfortunately, many of those who didn't vote for the Clown-In-Chief are going to suffer also. So, just let the suffering begin! I will laugh at the miserable Democrat voters when they start whining. They are starting to whine even now!
ye shall reap what you sow. did you vote democrat?
how’s that CHANGE working out for ya?
It was pointed-out at the time that the bipartisanship was in the opposition to the bill.
You are indeed blessed if you can handle this outrage. Good luck to you.
I love it! That’s great timing.
Let’s not forget that the GOP leadership wanted to give a delay so it wouldn’t hurt the democrats before the election.......
