Fire your Congresscritter, too!

I’m livid! My health insurance provider has sent me notice that the current ‘obamacare’ plan I’m on is going up HUGE. Now understand that Hawaii Medical Insurance Assn. provides the majority of health insurance in Hawaii, and has decades of experience with costs and health needs across a broad section of the populace here, because employer-provided plans have been the law here for a long time. Every full-time employee is required to be provided health insurance. So the only reason for the base plan premium to go up 40% is the added overhead that the Obamacare requires for them to comply. On average, their healthcare costs at HMSA cannot have not gone up that much, nor have they acquired a huge bunch of newly insured sick people.

With my ‘low income’ tax credits remaining about the same, my out-of-pocket payments are due to DOUBLE. I will be paying as much as I was a year ago when I was still working and earning three times what I get now. I am forcibly retired early and on Social Security. My health premiums will be 25% of my income! Thank God I don’t have rent or mortgage payments, but it will still be a struggle to eat and maintain the wholly-owned house. I’m 64 and only need to put up with this for one year before going on Medicare, thankfully.

People, If you are voting for TRUMP to take care of this, you need to do something more. FIRE YOUR CONGRESSMAN!! If your congress-critter has had two terms, he’s already on the ‘Gravy Train’ and looking out for his own interests, not yours. If you want to help TRUMP to make America great again, send some NEW BLOOD to congress that is willing to work with a new president to repeal this obamanation (sic) of a health-tax. Remember… the courts have ruled that it is a TAX on us. Are we being represented??  FIRE your congressman!
