Mine is "only" going up about 30%. I had the Cadillac last year but had
to reduce my coverage to keep within my budget this year. The cheapest
package I can get for what I was getting 2 years ago is the catastrophic
plan with a $6,500 deductible and no copays until it's met. Needless to
say I'm going to have to cough up a few $100 more a month due to this
disaster.

That's the number that I hear quoted. If you have a reputable
different number, then we can talk about that.
It's reported to be going up here by about 5%. It's going up more in
some other states. None the less, the overall increase in the last 5
or 6 years is still less than what was forecast.
The numbers need context.

Are you *SURE* 22M people have insurance now that didn't before?
If there are 22M more people paying for insurance, why is the cost
going up? Is it a scare resource now in higher demand?
