No Way: Doctor at Cleveland Clinic Says Three-Quarters of Obamacare Enrollees Have Higher Premiums

This is an extraordinary claim. And by “extraordinary,” that doesn’t mean “unbelievable.” Dr. Toby Cosgrove, CEO of the Cleveland Clinic, appeared on Fox News Sunday and made a startling announcement:
Out of people that have signed up, about three quarters will find premiums higher than previously with other insurance. Hospitals are going to be paid less for what they do.
It is extraordinarily difficult to square this fact with the promises that the President and other proponents of the plan have made. In fact, it is impossible.
It certainly proves the point Dr. Thomas Sowell made over a year ago, before the release of any health care premium costs:
But if you stop and think, however old-fashioned that may seem these days, do you seriously believe that millions more people can be given medical care and vast new bureaucracies created to administer payment for it, with no additional costs?
If you’re Harry Reid, this is just another one of those Obamacare “horror stories” - all of which are “Lies! Lies I tell you!” For the rest of us, pass the tums, because this bleeding ulcer from all the belt-tightening is starting to get uncomfortable…
