Here is what has happened to my medical plan since the Affordable Health Care Act was passed in march. I had insurance on both my kids (BC/BS) individual policy - $115 per month premium for each child and $1000 ded with 80./20 ( which paid 80 percent before ded was met). In March, the ded went to $426 per child and a $2000 ded for each child which had to be met before it would pay the 80 percent). My insurance at work this year - starting this July - my premuim is $600 per month - with a $4000 ded and NO prescription coverage. The 4000 has to be met before it will pay the 80 percent and I still have to pay full price on all my meds. I am unable to get a private policy for myself due to being a diabetic, HBP. Oh, yes and my son has ADHD and his meds cost me $350 a month now since he has no insurance. To add my children to my policy it would cost $1500 for both kids and the $600 for me. I only bring home $2,100 a month clear. Thanks OBAMA for my affordable health care. I can't get my kids on medicade because I make $1.12 too much a YEAR. My gross salary a month is too much and they take so much from my check, Taxes, Retirement (30%), medicare, union dues ( mandatory), Insurance premuim.

Thanks again Obama and Perlosi. I would LOVE to see Obama and Perlosi live on my salary and raise a family of 4.
