Now that the data on Obamacare is starting to come out should we rename it the unaffordable healthcare act?

"During his first run for president, Barack Obama made one very specific promise to voters: He would cut health insurance premiums for families by $2,500, and do so in his first term. But it turns out that family premiums have increased by more than $3,000 since Obama's vow, according to the latest annual Kaiser Family Foundation employee health benefits survey

    That's only the tip of the iceberg

    Two weeeks ago one of the many mandates of the Affordable Care Act was implemented whereby a Hospital is subject to a fine of $ 150,000 every time it re-admits a Medicare Patient back into the Hospital within 30 days of being discharged from the Hospital

    In other words.....If Aunt Ethel has a triple bypass and is dischsarged from the Hospital 2 days after the surgery and then develops " complications " 5 days after she is discharged....Aunt Ethel is S.O.L. and won't be re-admitted to the Hospital for the next 25 days IF she lives that long
