Time Flies…But For American Families, Costs Have Only Gone Up In The Year Since ObamaCare Was Upheld

• It’s hard to believe that a year ago interns were running across the steps of the Supreme Court handing out opinions that showed ObamaCare was upheld as a tax.

• Since then, healthcare premiums have risen, job creation has slowed, and polls show the law is as unpopular as it’s ever been.

• Democrats like Nancy Pelosi can try and tell us how “fabulous” it is, but one year later, the American people are still reeling from this disastrous law.

Nancy Pelosi: The Implementation Of ObamaCare Is “Fabulous.” “‘The implementation of this is fabulous,’ Pelosi said.” (Paige Winfield Cunningham And Jennifer Haberkorn, “Dems To Kathleen Sebelius: Seniors Confused On Obamacare,” Politico, 6/27/13)

Under Obamacare, Health Insurance Premiums For Families Are Now About $3,000 Higher, Instead Of $2,500 Lower As President Obama Promised. “Although President Obama repeatedly claimed that health-insurance premiums for a family would be $2,500 lower by the end of his first term, they are actually about $3,000 higher—a spread of about $5,500 per family.” (Merrill Matthews and Mark E. Litow, “ObamaCare’s Health-Insurance Sticker Shock,” The Wall Street Journal, 1/13/2013)
