Ever wonder what will happen if not enough healthy young people enroll in an ObamaCare approved health plan? Well, you should. Because if 30 million new healthy policy holders don't materialize, your health care plan is going to skyrocket. ObamaCare needs those additional 30 million young people. You know, the ones who are much less likely to actually use their benefits. The insurance companies were promised tens of millions of new policy holders. And if they don't materialize, the ObamaCare promises to bail them out via something called "risk corridors". Obamacare includes a provision that allows the federal government to funnel taxpayer dollars to insurers that face the prospect of losing too much money under the new health care law, and conservative critics want to repeal it. Simply put, the insurance companies will get a bail out. And guess who is going to pay for that? Yep. You. If you thought the $100 billion auto bailout was big. Or the $700 billion bank bailout was massive - how big do you think a bailout will be of one-sixth of our economy? This should come as no shock though. It was listed in the bill that no one read. Remind everyone that this was a bill voted into law without a single Republican vote.
