Residents of states that refuse to set up health insurance exchanges under Obamacare are set to be hit with higher premiums under new rules announced by the Health and Human Services Department.
Insurance companies will be charged 3.5 percent of any premiums they sell through the federal exchanges, the department announced Friday. And insurers are likely to pass that surcharge on to clients, leaading to higher premiums.
The only states to be affected are those that refuse to set up their own exchanges because of opposition to the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. They are almost certain to be those under Republican control. In those states, HHS will set up the exchanges.

IMPEACH THAT Son of a B!TCH!
I have to agree. He needs to be removed. This is getting ridiculous. Someone get some dirt on this bastard. Get him out.
FUBO!!
I would suggest stockpiling ammo and food while you wait.
There is LOTS of dirt on this usurper; however, he smacks of teflon... that and the “powers-that-be” either support his views or are SCARED of him.
REVENGE is HERE my friend, that’s what he is all about.
Get used to it because this is how he is going to deal with his opposers.
Another wealth transfer from producers to parasites. From producer states to parasite states. The left is defunding the right.
He’s been backhanding states like Texas and Arizona for years. Remember his callous comments during the Texas wildfires..”bet they believe in global warming now” or something to that effect. And who can forget the complete snub of where the Space shuttles would go. Nope, not Texas, not Houston where Mission Control is.Nope...New freaking York and Caleeefornia.
His strongarm Chicago thug tactics are way beyond their expiration date....
I knew I was setting myself up for that response as soon as I posted it.
Someone needs to get the sack to do something.
wow.
Do not buy healthcare through an exchange. duh.
this has never been about health.
>>> I have to agree. He needs to be removed. This is getting ridiculous. Someone get some dirt on this bastard. Get him out.
LOL!... you mean like evidence of forgery???
Don’t we have that already?
Obama could commit an execution style murder on the front lawn of the White House with 500 witnesses, and the press would refuse to report it... Law enforcement would refuse to take him into custody. The courts would punt to congress.
Fixed it.
If no one buys the federal exchange policies, then no one gets charged. We have to oppose socialized medicine every step of the way. That includes systematically under-withholding, so that the IRS cannot collect the fines between now and the time that this destructive bill is repealed.
Completely changing a huge industry on whims of the Administration will be like creating workable prototype automobiles for the entire nation without knowing how automobiles are actually designed, manufactured, financed, marketed, or repaired.
Good luck, Bronco Bamma...you're gonna need it.
Unless I am wrong, Marxism/Socialism is about to get a lesson in reality (straight from the theories of the University professors into the marketplace).
Yeehaaaw!
They can do it, if they wanted. Refuse interviews from hostile media. Answer leading questions with equally leading questions. Derision & sarcasm are powerful weapons.
This is war.
Waste of time. If you don't believe me, I got two words for you.
Justice Roberts. (See Individual Mandate)
Remember Justice Thomas admitted the Supremes were "evading" the eligibility question. I'd say the "powers-that-be" support his views.
he could take live kittens/puppies and toss them into boiling hot water on live TV..........all you would hear about it is***crickets***
It is important to keep in mind that any new fees to pay for the administration of exchanges will add to the cost of coverage, and that is why the focus needs to be on reducing administrative costs, streamlining operations, and avoiding regulatory duplication that will add complexity and increase costs," America's Health Insurance Plans (AHIP) said in a statement on the new rules.
Yea right, little bammy's administration is going to "streamlining operations, and avoiding regulatory duplication" ???
It is unlikely that the mentally defective lunatics that comprise his "administration" will even be able to get it off the ground at all.
But he will damn sure demand more and more money.
The "unlimited debt ceiling" demand suddenly becomes quite clear.
.
There are consequences to over reaching your imagined authority.
You can't be serious. There is plenty of dirt on this "Bastard". No one will report it or believe it. I am starting to think the only way this calamity could happen in the US is due to some dark unseen forces of the universe beyond our control or understanding.

Hey, you just have to be “friends” of Bath-House Barry to be “let off the hook”.

As soon as the press gets hold of this, they will run story after story of struggling families with children who have pre-existing conditions, so they can't afford health insurance and medicine. Just wait - - - oh, right, it's Obama. Nevermind.
Is there ANY law which states that all insurance MUST be purchased through an “exchange”?
I am not aware of any such language in Obamacare.
There has been plenty of dirt on this not-so-longer-closet-Muslim-usurper — the problem is we have reached a tipping point for stupid voters — we have more wanting “free stuff” — even if they could do better by having a decent economy that provides JOBS so they don’t need “free stuff.” It does not help in the least having evil “reporters” who refuse to cover news topics? Fast and Furious? *crickets* Benghazi? *ain’t no big thang* Nixon? Hang him for a 3rd rate burglary it’s not clear that he ordered. No one died at Watergate and he was forced out — this SOB isn’t even American, and he’s gotten an affirmative action pass his whole life. He is a vindictive, evil, SOB.
Said thug tactics are now in zombie mode, having expired but refusing to stop walking. Or it’s like superheated water in the microwave, above 212 degrees F but waiting for a jostle to begin boiling.
The Federal exchange thingy is winging it. Dunno about the rest. Do you work for a company that has gurus dedicated to such affairs? Or do you free lance?
What you or I would consider dirt his groupies consider frosting on the cake.
I am a CFP specializing in the Medicare Market, and an insurance broker.
I think the insurance companies are rather shy about publishing their legal opinions right now.
There’s plenty of dirt. We just don’t have the balls.
You’d think that if he really believed this supra-legal Federal exchange even had a basis in law to exist, he’d want to use it to draw the flies with honey, not vinegar.
Just a few days ago, I heard our Governor remark that the administration was ignoring the state officials responsible for crafting the healthcare programs. He elaborated on it; then said “it’s not right”. I don’t know what’s happened since. The “Obamafines” are a hoot.
Indeed, SOMEONE needs b*lls... WHO is it? I never fathomed this mire of scum - our so-called “leaders”. I realize there will always exist scum, but this is waaaaay too deep...
“creating workable prototype automobiles for the entire nation without knowing how automobiles are actually designed, manufactured, financed, marketed, or repaired.”
We’ve done that already- it’s called the Chevy Volt!/s;)
If not now....it will be. They change anything they need to change to get what they want.
We have been taken over and are under a dictatorship. The constitution is no more...why, because we have no one to stand up for us citizens.
Welcome to Hussein’s world.
Don’t you know Zippy goes to bed at night laughing his azz off.
67% of respondents polled were against Obamacare when it was voted on. Then, last November 6, they all (?) voted for its implementation.
So, basically, those states have to pay more because Obama sez so??
Failed to get off enough of their duffs to say NYET to it.
This is good example of the insidiousness of obamacare, they can quickly enact new rules or make stuff up at any time to counter any attack or close up any unintended loopholes.
The law is a couple thousand pages of massive powers granted in very vague, wide-open language. When they come up with a new “rule” they can say “page 2105, section 9, p2, it says that such and such will be determined by the secretary...blah blah blah.” They can literally make *hit up and even if someone tries to fight it, they will lose after a long legal battle.
It should have been deemed unconstitutional on this fact alone! If a bill is so big that nobody including the supreme court will read the whole thing, how can anyone say without a doubt that its constitutional? We are ruled by stupid power mad people, they are no longer our servants.
The old revolution was against an off shore power.
The new revolution will be a civil war. Whether bloody or bloodless remains to be be seen.
It’s a taaaaaaaaaaax!
Instead of requiring you to pay for X, which would be blatantly unconstitutional, they just tax you and buy X for you with the tax money. Clever ain’t it.
I have no words to describe how I feel and the depth of my disgust for this shit!
>>> he could take live kittens/puppies and toss them into boiling hot water...
lol... you are correct... that would be much worse publicly speaking than murdering a human being.
Obama makes Slick Willie look like Nixon.
How do upcoming Senate races look? Potential to create a Senate that would convict Bummer upon impeachment?
This is how the admin will get around any protest against obama care by the states. When all is said and done, obamacare will make the IRS rules and regs look like child's reading.
In five years this thing will be tens of thousands of pages of rules, and grow yearly by thousands of pages.
