k-12 Tax & $pending climate: Obamacare cost explosion
For fiscal 2025, the system recorded $59 million in operating income, equal to a margin of 0.3%, according to the Globe. Its total margin, which included investment income, was $2.38 billion.
June 2008, candidate Obama: “we’ll lower premiums by up to $2,500 for a typical family per year.”
That year KFF (Kaiser Family Foundation) put the average family premium at $12,680. KFF’s 2026 number just dropped: $28,303. Workers alone now pay $7,471, up 9% in a single year, while wages rose 3.7%.
Then 2013 brought the sequel: “For a lot of people, it will be cheaper than your cell phone bill.”
Show me the phone plan that runs $2,358 a month. Nine days before the midterms, the party that built this machine is asking for your vote again.
