ObozoCare vs. Grocery Prices

Think that ObozoCare won't slam you?

Think again.

Obamacare will cost large U.S. employers between $4,800 to $5,900 per employee. 

Large employers expect overall Obamacare-related cost increases of between $163 million and $200 million per employer, or an increase of 4.3 percent in 2016 and 8.4 percent in 2023 over and above what they would otherwise be spending. --quoted at PowerLine

In the study, "large employers" were those with 10,000+ employees.

Roundy's--which is Pick'N'Save and MetroMart--employs more than 20,000.

So.  How much is a pound of ground beef?

More.

    From the report that Power Line cites:

    "From 1998 to 2003, employer health care costs jumped by an average 8.3 percent per year."

    That's 8.4% total over 10 years vs a historical 8.3% per year.

    I'd take Obamacare.
