Experiencing sticker-shock at the price of insurance on ObamaCare exchanges?

That's more likely if you live in a "red state" that didn't vote for Obama, according to price data compiled by the Heritage Foundation. In red states, premiums for 27-year-olds rose an average of 78% on ObamaCare exchanges, whereas in "blue states" that voted for Obama, premiums rose a smaller 50%.

Senate critics of ObamaCare say the difference is one way in which the bill is unfair.

This abysmal failure is discriminatory against red states.

They knew that this was going to happen. Red states tend to be more rural and have fewer insurance companies vying for customers.  Less competition means higher prices.  It was a deliberate part of ObamaCare to keep companies from offering policies across state lines.

Well, it makes sense. Those of us who have a job and paid for our own healthcare are having our plans canceled or forced to enrol in obamacare plans which we can't afford.

F*** this.  :mad:
