Report: O-Care to Increase Individual Market Premiums By Average of 41%

Remember this?
Obama repeatedly promised Obamacare would save US families $2,500 a year.

Now we know that wasn’t true either.
Obamacare will increase individual market premiums by an average of 41% .
Forbes reported on this earlier this month:

One of the fundamental flaws of the Affordable Care Act is that, despite its name, it makes health insurance more expensive. Today, the Manhattan Institute released the most comprehensive analysis yet conducted of premiums under Obamacare for people who shop for coverage on their own. Here’s what we learned. In the average state, Obamacare will increase underlying premiums by 41 percent. As we have long expected, the steepest hikes will be imposed on the healthy, the young, and the male. And Obamacare’s taxpayer-funded subsidies will primarily benefit those nearing retirement—people who, unlike the young, have had their whole lives to save for their health-care needs.
