7 Million Americans Could Lose Health Insurance Thanks To ...

Boy, the Obamacare fun just never stops. Today?s news comes from the CBO and The Washington Times ? Obamacare could force 7 million Americans to lose their health insurance coverage. So much for the promise ?If you like your insurance plan, you can keep it.?

President Obama?s health care law will push 7 million people out of their job-based insurance coverage ? nearly twice the previous estimate, according to the latest estimates from the Congressional Budget Office released Tuesday.

CBO said that this year?s tax cuts have changed the incentives for businesses and made it less attractive to pay for insurance, meaning fewer will decide to do so. Instead, they?ll choose to pay a penalty to the government, totaling $13 billion in higher fees over the next decade.

But the non-partisan agency also expects fewer people to have to pay individual penalties to the IRS than it earlier projects, because of a better method for calculating incomes that found more people will be exempt.

Overall, the new health provisions are expected to cost the government $1.165 trillion over the next decade ? the same as last year?s projection. (Read More)
