-your health insurance premium is going to double next year

Well, ok, now instead of going up 32% in October, the State is allowing 20% in January. It’s not double, but it’s still a lot.

The wingnuts don’t have to scare me – I’m already there and it’s with nothing Obama’s supposed to have done. This is just the reality of the current system.

Facebook had a poll I just took asking if Congress should be forced to use regular health insurance. of course I responded yes.
