While 65 percent of existing policies will see an increase in premium costs for 2015, the medium increase will be just 4 percent.
I thought Obamacare was supposed to make health care costs LOWER. This is still twice the rate of inflation, and it is on top of already astronomical rates.

Why do repubs like charter schools?
Pay to play..
Segregated...
oh, and the nearly unlimited funds that can be got through opening them...

North Carolina Tells Charter-School Chain It Can’t Keep Administrator Salaries Secret
The schools’ management company, which receives millions in public funds each year from the schools, says that the salaries paid to school administrators should be considered a trade secret.
The North Carolina State Board of Education has issued a warning to a charter-school chain for failing to comply with an agency order to disclose the salaries of school administrators. The schools have been put on "financial probationary status," which could lead to sanctions if their board does not comply within 10 business days.
This is the same charter-school chain, Charter Day School, Inc., that ProPublica wrote about last month. As we reported, the four charter schools channel millions in public education dollars each year to for-profit companies owned by the schools' founder, businessman Baker Mitchell. One of the for-profit companies, Roger Bacon Academy, is paid to run all the day-to-day operations of the schools. As we wrote:
Roger Bacon Academy functions as the schools' administrative arm, taking the lead in hiring and firing school staff.
It handles most of the bookkeeping. The treasurer of the nonprofit that controls the four schools is also t he chief financial officer of Mitchell's management company. The two organizations even share a bank account.
Mitchell's management company was chosen by the schools' nonprofit board, which Mitchell was on at the time — an arrangement that is illegal in many other states.
But repubs would never do such a thing...

You thought wrong. Lowering the costs of insurance premiums was never a goal of ACA.
Controlling your life was.

Hey righties, what happened to the ebola crisis? Obama failed, we're all gonna die!!!
Didn't happen.
What happened to $5 gas, drill, baby, drill?
Didn't happen. Just paid $2.85/gal. Get your Hummers out of storage.
What happened to ISIS streaming over the border?
Don't see em.
What happened to the War on the Border? Where are the outraged bused-in patriots?
All that settled down.
What happened to the Bundy Ranch War?
Crazies went home.
What about the Duck Dynasty Dude? He's still a homophobe on the air, right?
Who cares.

da chief: re your comment
Me... I am staying right the fk here. Been to more countries around this globe than either Bobda or Jingy could ever dream of going to. Every continent and over 182 countries to be exact. After doing so for over 24 and years, I can clearly and unequivocally say, America is the Best Nation on this planet.
Makes me happy to see that we are both happy with our wonderful country.
At times I worry we exist in different worlds.
Jest think: we both like mountains, desert, climbing, firearms, fishing, &
solitude.
Glad to see we have so much in common, including voting for Obama.
and
The last 6 years have been best income years of my life.

GD Right "The Chief",I am very GRATEFUL for my freedoms.
But I do not get gratitude or pleasure from dissing another,as you do.
As far as spoiled goes,my family is gone ,I have worked as a Carpenter for 36 years.
Do you know any "spoiled carpenters".
Again ,it is always about you.
You should learn to live with opposing opinions,but why would you,you do not have to make a living.

I listen to all good advice.
As for non-stop butthurt, OK, I'll admit I can be a deaf at times.
I prefer songs with more than one note.
It's probably a lack of empathy ;)
