发帖数: 29846 | 1 NBCUniversal’s Insurance Premiums to Rise Due to Obamacare
By Sean Long | October 30, 2013 | 17:22
CNBC’s morning anchors were troubled by the news that their own insurance
plans will become more costly under the Affordable Care Act (ACA).
On Oct. 30’s “Squawk Box,” CNBC Senior Correspondent Scott Cohn revealed
details of NBC’s open enrollment, brandishing an official fact book
outlining the process. He quoted the document, revealing that the ACA would
increase employee premiums.
Cohn observed “Some of these costs, when you look at this, are way up --
double digits.”
Aetna Chairman and CEO, Mark Bertolini explained that “Aetna alone will
pass through to its customers over a billion dollars of taxes and fees
associated with the Affordable Care Act.”
Ironically, NBC has worked hard to promote Obamacare. In the week before the
exchanges opened, NBC launched their own week-long campaign, to “help
Americans get the most out of the Affordable Care Act.” NBC affiliate MSNBC
was even more blatant in touting Obamacare.
According to the new health plan, “federally mandated health care changes
will require Comcast-NBCUniversal to pay new fees and implement plan design
changes that will contribute to the increased cost of our plans.”
These plan changes would also affect other NBCUniversal outlets like NBC and
MSNBC. | l****z

The good news MSNBC is not reporting, is that their new health insurance
plans will include mental health coverage for their news staff. Matthews,
Shultz and Sharpton, can soon get the help they need.

I don't know about nicer, but the idiots at NBC are much more deserving
since they were willing pimps for this government travesty.

HAHAHAHA...I love it when people get what they ask for! You liberals kept
shoving it down our throats, the Obummer won so get over it, so we don't
want to hear any crying from you over the ACA. The Obummer won, you got what
you wanted, so get over it! hahaha

MSNBC just recieved this memo from the White House:
You're insurance rates are going up. This is directly a result of the ACA.
Now, do NOT report this, instead blame any or all of the following:
A) The Tea Party
B) Republicans
C) Insurance Companies
Thank you for your cooperation and have a nice day! | I******I
