I recently posted a bit of factual information without comment and received condemnation for the post. Here is another,...bring it on!!!
The GOP national committee recently released a talking point pointing out, correctly, that in the last 6 years under Obamacare (?the most relevant parts of Obamacare did not go into effect until 2014?) the average premium for a family's health insurance has "soared" upward 26% or $4154 for those 6 years. Sounds bad, is bad!
Factcheck.org has even rated the claim as true!! But, they did provide some context...In the first 6 years of W's administration health insurance premiums increased 72%. Under the 6 Bush years the inflation rate was 13% putting the increase in insurance costs at 5.5 times the overall increase in the cost of living. Under Obama's first 6 years the inflation rate was 11% so the premium increase was 2.3 times inflation...less than half of in W's corresponding years
