I just got my 7th increase in the past 2.5 years.

My plan that used to be $80/mo when i signed up, is now going to be $210/mo.

Ouch. Mine comes out of my taxes, so I guess it doesnt seem so much like a bill.

Due to the Baby Boomer generation getting older and the shortage of nurses along with the passing of R & D costs to consumers (for prescription drugs), expect more increases in the future.

It's a shame that healthcare cannot be standardized and outsourced to keep costs down. The consumers are getting hammered!
