Can't take more Obamacare increases

Since Obamacare started, my premiums have increased. The first year by 50 percent the second year by 20 percent the third year by 35 percent and now this week by 46.9 percent.

Each year the coverage decreases and the premiums increase. Also the deductible increases.

I went from $157 a month with tremendous coverage to $726.22 with terrible coverage and a $6,000 deductible. Well enough is enough. I am not renewing my insurance. For the amount I am paying, even if I got sick I would not have to pay that much and if I got sick, I still have to pay the first $6,000.

My insurance agent says a lot of people are doing the same thing. Being in good health, I will take the risk.

I cannot believe that the president believes he did a good thing with Obamacare. To me he ruined the insurance system for the middle class person.
