What will happen to my insurance premiums?

Most consumers can expect to keep seeing increases in premiums and co-payments because the underlying cost of health care is expected to rise. The law contains a few mechanisms to curb premiums, but it also requires that many insurance providers make their benefits more generous, which will raise their cost. Older people could see their premiums go down because of the new age rating rules insurers will face. People who buy policies without the help of an employer could get a better deal by being able to shop on the exchanges, where comparing plans will be easier than before.



What a Shame when most people did not want this passed!!!
Shows you they do not stand with the America people!!!!!
Yahoo did a poll here are the results.

    They were saying on CNN many employers will get rid of healthcare. The employers will have their employees pay the penalties as it will be cheaper for the employer. Instead of hiring new employees they will keep the people they just work them harder. The less employees the cheaper the pay in penalties. Also said that medical insurance will increase quite a bit until 2014.

    The republicans called it a tax,because thats exactly what it is, Chief Justice Roberts said it would not have been constitutional under the mandate,the way it was, so they had to run it through as a tax..When I heard this it made me sick..because if you remember President Obama was asked directly by John Stephanopoulos, in 2009 if it was going to be a tax on the people,and he fumbled around for a few minutes and finally said very smart like to John, you just had to ask me that,and finally Obama said.." No John I can tell you this, there will not be a tax,".
    Well he lied again..but oh well,he has told so many lies by now, whats one more to Obama..,but whats so bad about this..people really believe him..I read a sign today in this yard on my way home..and it read..

    Comprehensive Immigration Reform

    WASHINGTON— As chairman of the U.S. bishops’ Committee on Migration, Bishop John C. Wester of Salt Lake City applauded the July 28 decision by U.S. District Judge Susan Bolton to halt some of the most controversial provisions of Arizona SB 1070 from going into effect the next day. Bishop Wester lamented the status quo on immigration as “unacceptable” and called for the Federal government to act immediately on immigration reform.

    "It is the right decision,” Bishop Wester said. “Any law that provides legal cover to profiling affects all members of our communities, including legal residents and citizens. It is a very slippery slope. What is needed now is for Congress and the Administration to live up to their responsibilities and address this issue by passing immigration reform."

    The U.S. Catholic bishops believe that any comprehensive immigration reform bill should contain the following elements: a legalization program that gives migrant workers and their families an opportunity to earn legal permanent residency and eventual citizenship; a new worker visa program that protects the labor rights of both U.S. and foreign workers and gives participants the option to earn permanent residency; reform of the U.S. family-based immigration system to reduce waiting times for family reunification; and restoration of due process protections for immigrants, including asylum-seekers. In the longer term, policies that address the root causes of migration, such as the lack of sustainable development in sending nations, should also be part of the equation.

    The Cardinal's Column

    Francis Cardinal George, O.M.I.

    July 18, 2010

    Immigration and the law

    U.S. bishops have asked for a reform of our law, a reform that can only be accomplished on the federal level. The reform should start with concern for the basic respect that is owed all human beings, no matter their status before the law. It should provide a path to citizenship for the great majority who are law-abiding citizens now, and it should separate for deportation any who are criminals. The path to citizenship has to begin with registration with the government, so that those here without legal documents can begin to live on the right side of the law. Since reform is not an amnesty, it should probably include the payment of a fine for illegally entering our country, provisions for learning our public language, English, and for studying the basic laws of our country. These and other possible elements of the reform of immigration laws for those who want to live here permanently need to be debated publicly.

    Part of the reform of immigration law might include a temporary visa program for workers who would not take up permanent residence in the United States. An adequate supply of such visas would do much to reduce the illegal smuggling of people across the border, which has made it a place of human trafficking, of drug trading and of violence. The other part of such a program would be a nationwide employment verification system that would enable the government to be sure that employers hire only workers who are here legally. This system would have to be carefully monitored, with adequate legal safeguards for both workers and employers.

    These are suggestions that the bishops have put forward in the hope of influencing public discussion about immigration and the law. Finally, we are talking not only about law but, more importantly, about people. The U.S. bishops have said that the presence of people from Mexico in our country is a blessing. Most of them are of the household of the faith. We are at home with them, in their house or in ours. We have a common mother, Our Lady of Guadalupe. May she help us to be fair to one another in legal terms and lead us to love one another in the church.

    President Obama says, "America belongs to those in the world as much as it does to American citizens"!

    I think you can now see who is really running our government for the Papacy's One World Order.

    judge roberts traitor

    Judge Roberts and his liberal friends on the Supreme Court rewrote the law today, the Obama Lawyers NEVER even argued the Mandate as a tax they called it a penalty, yet these five clowns decided to rule it as a constitutional tax on the American people, setting a Very Dangerous precedent now giving the Federal Government control over deciding what they deem we as Americans should buy or be TAXED. So, to all you liberals that find this a good decision, what happens when the federal government decides that you should join a gym and exercise 5 days a week and you cannot afford to buy that membership, I guess Odummy and his henchmen will be sending the IRS to your door for that TAX because they deem exercising is what they feel is best for you, and you have no choice but to comply to BIG BROTHER!!!???

    I'm sure there are good parts just as sure there are bad parts and things that should have been added in the first place like Tort Reform and purchasing insurance across state lines. Reading and understanding the bill before voting on it would have been the smart thing to do two years ago but Congress was too lazy and too stupid to do the right thing. Repeal it, read it, add to it, and change what's needed and it still might work.

    In one way .. I am truly disappointed ..

    On the other hand .. this was called what it IS .. a TAX ..
    one that is especially PUNISHING on those of us who work hard each and every day to EARN our incomes ..
    a tax that is .. by its very nature .. even more punishing as you age ..

    this comes with definite INCREASED premium costs .. definite increases in co-pays/deductibles .. definitely means LESS services (as there already are more denials of care .. more categories of care not covered) ... and providers are dropping out too at a very rapid rate (from pre-authorized programs) .. (and that's just the beginning)

    We HAVE the LARGEST TAX INCREASE ever right now ..
    all squarely on the backs of the middle class ..

    According to this, the federal government may now tax you for any reason or no reason. This destroys every protection you had against arbitrary punishments, except for two things: the government may not execute you or confine you without due process, but it can tax all your property away from you if you do not do what the government says.
