Individual health insurance
taxespremiums will rise by more than 20 percent in Colorado next year as insurers are pulling out of the market or greatly scaling back their offerings to state residents who don’t receive their insurance through their employer.Dramatic Price Increases A Look at Colorado’s 2017 Individual and Small Group Insurance Premiums – Colorado Health Institute
How's that ACA working out for ya? What they don't discuss in detail is how the rate increases are accompanied by reductions in benefits – higher deductibles and out-of-pocket maximums with narrower provider networks. Remember how we could all keep our doctors?
It's time for singlepayer – ColoradoCare-Yes!

Are you objecting to corporations being able to set their prices for the marketplace? Year by year comparisons on relatively new offerings are likely to show substantial adjustments.
If you are looking at prices, it would be interesting to see what the overall impact on out-of-pocket costs are going to be. Denver Business Journal reported:
maybe if we had less Thieves sitting in CEO thrones and Board rooms like those of Wells Fargo Bank our health care system might function a little better.
His name is Stumpf, not Trump. And Tester was tough, but Elizabeth Warren is the one who made me proud of being a lifelong Democratic:
I dare say our Dear S. Bennet would never hold such views. Nor ever hold any big bankers accountable for stealing millions from millions like Liz is trying to do. That's what I'm talking about when I talk about the Coward.
Oh, and I dare say CPols would print up Mikey’s press release likethat if he did something like Liz, and you could even get Republican voters to agree it was a good thing if you framed it so.
Actually, Elizabeth Warren is a strong supporter of Bennet, who she has enthusiastically endorsed. A Democratic Senate led by mainstream liberals like Bennet and Warren is our best hope to protect and improve the ACA.
Whether or not one feels that ACA is a good solution, our best hope in general is a Dem Senate including Senators like Warren and Bennet .
Real Clear Politics currently showing a net Dem pickup of 3 Senate seats; getting four, but losing Harry Reid's Nevada seat. New Hampshire seems to be too close to call at this time, but could become a fifth Dem pickup giving them 50 seats and control, if Hillary wins the presidency.
For those who live in the Denver-Boulder metro area, please vote for Measure 4B on the upcoming ballot. 4B will re-authorize the SCFD (Scientific and Cultural Facilities District).
