Glad to help others... but it will be taxing.
Remember... along with the high premiums... the middle class is being asked to pay for "children to age 26" The federal health care overhaul would allow dependent children up to age 26 to be eligible for coverage under their parents' insurance.
................................ AP, Associated Press
..................................... Health care law's unfinished business: cost curbs ..................................................................................... Ricardo Alonso-Zaldivar
Associated Press Writer On Sunday April 25, 2010, 8:32 pm ...Insurance premiums are likely to keep going up over the next few years. Experts predict that the law's early benefits -- such as expanded coverage for children and young adults --
could nudge rates a little higher than would otherwise have been the case. Also, insurers
and medical providers could try to raise their prices ahead of big shifts set for 2014.

Remember in 2014... You need to have Health Care Insurance..
Or face a penalty, like 2.5% of income...
and
Beginning in 2018, there will be a new tax on employer-provided, high-end health plans that offer generous benefits
and toss in a little age discrimination...
The thresholds, which are scheduled to increase annually at the rate of inflation, will be
higher for workers over 55

FDA has made a Bold move... !
Drug-Makers and Device Makers Should Share Information
...................................................................................................... Are you thinking what I'm thinking?
OMG... they just thought of that?
Jennifer Ruzek Liebermann... ( folks, It's not the money... )
...Over at The Health Care Blog Jennifer Ruzek Liebermann,
director of Kaiser Permanente’s Sidney R. Garfield Health Care Innovation Center, lays that canard to rest. "Be aware that monetary incentives are not the primary drivers for innovative thinkers," she writes. "Autonomy to innovate" and "professional development opportunities" are what motivate inventors. ...Ideally, regulators can lead the way. Source-

All we have are 'promises' on anything meaninful... and
a sure thing - on high Health Care Premiums and Fines. (How does paying for all these extra people help the middle class, afford health Care premiums or be fined? )
................. ...extending coverage for dependents through age 26, (New York State already passed a law that Ins. Co's can't say no to pre existing conditions. States Gov's need to get together on that. )
.................... ....implementing high-risk pools for Americans with pre-existing conditions (Where is this clearly spelled out? All we hear is - Cuts to Medicare )
................ .....and supplementing insurance for early retirees. Congressional Budget Office estimates released Tuesday predict
the health care overhaul will likely cost about $115 billion more in discretionary spending over ten years than the original cost projections. From ............... POLITICO ..................... May 12, 2010

cough up the policing cost. Like they did for the W.H.O. Flu of Mass Destruction.

that people who like their current coverage would be able to keep it.
But an early draft of an administration regulation estimates that many
