US ECONOMY EXPANDS AT 0.4 PERCENT RATE
BY MARTIN CRUTSINGER
AP ECONOMICS WRITER
WASHINGTON (AP) -- The U.S. economy grew at a slightly faster but still anemic rate at the end of last year. However, there is hope that growth accelerated in early 2013 despite higher taxes and cuts in government spending.
The economy grew at an annual rate of 0.4 percent in the October-December quarter, the Commerce Department said Thursday. That was slightly better than the previous estimate of 0.1 percent growth. The revision reflected stronger business investment and export sales.

I am revising my beliefWhy do you care about individual premiums when everyone will have the option to buy an exchange plan in a few months?
First you bitched that it was -0.1%
Then you bitched that it was revised upward to 0.1%
Then you bitched that it was re-revised upward to .04%
Upward revisions are a bad thing!
Obama, supported by his clueless followers, are in the process of tearing down the free enterprise system. Our society is being destroyed before our eyes.

If Obama is tearing down the free enterprise system then why is the Dow dancing with all-time highs?
SEBELIUS DOESN’T UNDERSTAND WHAT “INSURANCE” IS (AND DOESN’T REALLY CARE): When asked about the impending 30%+ rise in health insurance premiums expected under Obamacare, HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius nonchalantly responded:
“Some of these folks,” Sebelius said, referring to those hit by ObamaCare’s price spikes, “have very high catastrophic plans that don’t pay for anything unless you get hit by a bus. They’re really mortgage protection plans, not health insurance.”
As John Merline at IBD observes:
Sebelius has it exactly wrong. It’s precisely those catastrophic plans that are real insurance, which in case anyone has forgotten is supposed to protect against unforeseen costly events, not pay $20 doctor visits.
What Obama and company are trying to force down everyone’s throats isn’t insurance, it’s massively expensive prepaid health care.
Too bad for those who’d rather buy real insurance and spend their money on something else.
So let’s get this straight: The woman in charge of implementing Obamacare:
(a) doesn’t really understand what “insurance” means and is designed to do; and
(b) thinks a 30%+ premium hike is good because people will get more “stuff”
Ugh — another instance of progressive/liberal distortion of language and belief that “more is always better.” Beam me up, Scotty.
it is up because of the ultimate destructive PUMP of MONEY by central bankers
it is easier to MAKE PLAY MONEY and hope the ripple effect helps
then to fix Obama's wreck
The 30% increase statistic is meant to scare you, not inform you. It's referring to catastrophic plans which have very low premiums to begin with. Insurance companies can't drop people if they become sick so a $20 premium goes to $26 and OMG 30% INCREASE DAMN YOU OBAMACARE!!!!
