“In our small company’s case we have a plan that we like, that works for us, and we understand that as we look to the future, an ACA-compliant plan is going to be no better than that, and cost us more,” said Fred McCoy, CEO and part-owner of NeuroTronik in Chapel Hill.

Dem's path after Obamacare: down, down, down

"After (the midterms), the conditions for repeal and replace may be even better than most people think," writes a Senate Republican aide in an email exchange.

The entire economy is going to go into shock when a huge amount of disposable income is sucked up by health premiums. Folks have no idea....

I know someone who works for an insurance company. She said they have to pay millions in fees for obamacare. So premiums are going up. Of course, they are blamed rather than obamacare when people call there.

Remember the bh0 mind-think: “We don’t need those small businesses, all we have to do is print money and put more folks on food stamps so they will become dependent upon us and thus owe us their votes.”

The plan’s premium costs went up 4 percent at the Sept. 1 renewal. But when the costs were calculated for compliance with Obamacare mandates, “It turns out that in our case that would have been a 57 percent increase

That's "what if," for 2015 coverage.

It gets real in 2016, when the Obamacare mandates kick in for medium-size businesses employing between 50 and 99 workers, according to the article.

I generally get blank stares when complaining about the $18k I’m paying each year in health insurance costs.

The vast majority have no clue what it means to pay for health insurance — it’s often something the “company pays” so it’s not their problem. /smh

Maybe it's time Employers start splitting the increased cost of Health Insurance with the Employee's
Just half the increase should be enough to pi$$ of the work force.

The goal is to put them out of business and their employees out of jobs.
