Sure, insurance companies will recover costs where they can, but the trend of employers shifting more costs to employees was well established before the ACA.

The fact is costs have risen more slowly over the last 5 years. Not necessarily due to the ACA, of course.

As more Dem footsoldiers are impacted by this (government workers - especially teachers) then it will change.
