Deep South Republican officials are full of bullshit when providing estimates of Obamacare impact (via Charles Gaba)
South Carolina: ACA premiums to only go up 1% on average for 2015
Obamacare isn’t driving health insurance premiums through the roof in South Carolina.
In fact, individual plans sold through HealthCare.gov or directly by insurance companies should only increase by about 1 percent in this state next year.
That’s a relatively minor bump compared to some other states – and much lower than the 50 percent to 70 percent increase that South Carolina officials predicted a year ago.
Now let me look out the window and confirm that the sun comes up in the East while everyone else enjoys an open thread.
