My comments: there is no fucking way this is true. They have to be making this shit up.

On edit: how the hell do we combat it when the fucking "news" people just make stuff up? These people have no shame.

Here is an excerpt of this crap.

"When I saw the letter when I came home from work," Andy said, describing the large red wording on the envelope from his insurance carrier, &quot it said) 'your action required, benefit changes, act now.' Of course I opened it immediately."

It had stunning news. Insurance for the Mangiones and their two boys,which they bought on the individual market, was going to almost triple in 2014 --- from $333 a month to $965.

The insurance carrier made it clear the increase was in order to be compliant with the new health care law.

"This isn't a Cadillac plan, this isn't even a silver plan," Mangione said, referring to higher levels of coverage under ObamaCare.
