Did I say $80 or an $80 increase?
It's obvious who the GOP cares for and it's not the American worker. Guilded Age Part Deux..Can't wait to see what they do next.
You are an ass. The biggest ass on Lit..
It still amazes me that they get a good portion of their base to vote against their own self interest when they trot out this sort of thing. One would think that there would be open rebellion within the ranks of their supporters when they do something so blatantly in favor of big business.
But then, I think the problem is that Joe and Mary actually believe that one day they'll move out of that southern Alabama trailer park and into their very own McMansion. Just as soon as Mary hits the big time with Amway. Then they'll be benefitting from the screws being out to the workers on behalf of business.
maybe, maybe not
but you're a stupid fuck
show me
I got all day
I'll wait
Sure. But I'm about to use numbers so it might piss you off.
- Family of four, parents age 32, nobody smokes. The family makes $50,000, $209% of poverty level. They want a Silver Plan with good coverage and will be buying off an exchange.
- Kaiser puts their estimated premium in 2014 at $10,974.
- The family is then eligible for a 70% government subsidy and therefore pays only $3,314 per year or $276 per month.
- The figures I'm using are already in the 2014 environment so the increase should already be in there but for the sake of argument let's say it's not and run the numbers with an $80 per month increase. That would be $24 per month more after the subsidy (but it wont be). That would be about an 8% increase on what they actually pay which is similar to the annual rate increase prior to the ACA. This is a one-time increase though and after that any further increases would be reduced by 70%.
- The family can also buy a Bronze plan and pay only $1,436 per year or $119 per month.

She’s insane, the deficit hasn’t decreased, it’s closing in on $17 trillion. Update: Stretch is talking about the yearly spending deficit, still an absurd claim considering Obamacare hasn’t gone into effect.
....
1. The deficit HAS decreased.
2. The deficit is not the same thing as the debt.

Government will take that revenue and spend even more, creating even higher deficits.

There's already a lot more revenue due to tax increases and it's causing the deficit to plunge. Did the government go out and spend it?
