If by "repeal" you mean "go at least twice as far"
then yes, we want it repealed.
Thanks, I think 15.6% rise is enough for me now. That is at least one dining out for us. Our local restaurant owners thank you.
Quit whining.

Of course the insurance will be better. It will also be dramatically more expensive as a whole. Who is going to pay for the difference? Exactly. Congress can pass a law that says people can purchase a $50,000 car for $4k, but that $46,000 difference doesn't magically disappear.

Yes, I'm sure your rates wouldn't have gone up at all except for the Affordable Care Act.
Get ready for this. EVERY change in healthcare from this point on will be blamed on Obamacare. Sorry. You have to carry the cross on your back.

Maybe your rates are rising due to all the anti healthcare reform lobbying that your insurance company paid for.

No denying this. Blame always carries to the guy in charge. Fault, however, is another subject.
