This includes Japan the USA and several European countries.  So here we go ahead with the treat of another downgrade and not just us.  Apparently Japan is facing welfare spending alone at being 22% of their GDP.
The week Obama care was passed ehealthinsurance had plans ranging from 89$ to 809$ for healing insurance plans for me.  two weeks ago the same plans were 126$ to 1249$.

I know that Obamacare really doesn't start for a few years yet,but my secondary insurance, due to the proposed cuts in medicare figured into Obamacare, has gone up twice already (premiums), one year ago it went up 15%, and this last spring another 35%, so this so called affordable plan is already costing us on Medicare plenty, and more to come.
  Plus, if his proposed cuts to doctors take effect, we will also lose many care givers that will not work for what Medicare will be allowed to pay them.

I mean sure it caused the price of insurance to increase by 30% on average.. but it was totally worth it because it made it clear that a 26 year old is still a child....
