BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n
RUSH: Expanding on what Ellen in Falls Church, Virginia, just said, our last caller. She\u2019s a small business owner. She\u2019s getting letters acknowledging that the premium and deductibles are skyrocketing on her Obamacare policy. Individuals are getting these letters, too, and in some cases — I read the example of a family in Minnesota, I think they\u2019re a farm family. Not sure about that, but, anyway, their monthly — are you ready for this? — the monthly, monthly — this is incredible — for the family, monthly premium costs are $40,000. Wait a minute, it sounds more like yearly, and the deductible is $13,000 per person. They can\u2019t afford it. And even if they could afford the premiums, they would never trigger the coverage because the deductible is like 13 to $14,000. <\/p>\n
Now, the point is people are getting these letters, not just small business owners, individuals are getting these letters acknowledging the costs. Look, this is the sad thing. It\u2019s by design. Obamacare is supposed to fail, and it\u2019s supposed to fail in a way that people perceive the insurance companies being at fault. Not Obama. Remember, now, there\u2019s the Limbaugh Theorem, which explains why Obama hasn\u2019t been held accountable for anything that\u2019s gone wrong, from the economy, to the stimulus not mattering, to the international foreign policy of this country. We\u2019re in more wars under Obama than we ever were under George W. Bush. And in almost every instance, it\u2019s because of Bush. <\/p>\n
I mean, look at the, folks, Obama\u2019s sitting there with a 55% approval, so whatever you hope about all this stuff attaching itself to him is not happening. In the case of Obamacare, these rising premiums and deductibles, it\u2019s the insurance companies. Typical, typical unfeeling hatred, Citizen United type big corporations which are not people. Corporations don\u2019t cry, corporations don\u2019t bleed, corporations, companies are not people. Just evil. They kill people. They\u2019re not people. They kill their customers and they don\u2019t care. But they\u2019re not people. <\/p>\n And Obama is perceived as one guy trying so hard to reverse this, when in truth everything that\u2019s going wrong in health care is the result of Democrat Party implemented policy. This is the thing that frustrates me about Millennials. Look, I\u2019ve mentioned this before, and I know it\u2019s being redundant to say it. Here you have these Millennials graduating college, or have graduated, they are saddled with student loan debt that\u2019s going to take, in some cases, over ten years or more to repay. While that\u2019s going on, there aren\u2019t any career path openings. The job market is woefully inadequate. There are all kinds of part-time jobs available. That\u2019s what people want to fill because of Obamacare. But being able to start out your course on a career, it\u2019s not there. It\u2019s not happening. <\/p>\n We don\u2019t have a robust and vibrant and growing economy, and the young people facing this do not blame Obama. They don\u2019t blame government. They just think it\u2019s a confluence of events that happened to occur at the time they reached adulthood. It\u2019s just an accident of fate. You can\u2019t convince them that their circumstances are the direct result of implemented Democrat Party policy. <\/p>\n This is the first election in my life where the economy is not even a factor in the election. If it were, Hillary Clinton would be in deep doo-doo because this is her party that did this, and people associated, not just the president but his party and the economy, the back pockets, kitchen table issues, were always the issues that dominated and determined electoral outcome. But this one doesn\u2019t. And there are a lot of other issues like that that used to matter a lot that don\u2019t seem to. <\/p>\n And so people on the Republican side who\u2019ve been thinking, “Well, we\u2019ve got a great chance here because the economy\u2019s in the tank and it\u2019s the Democrats.” No. People are not associating Obama or the Democrats with — even his name\u2019s on the thing. Obamacare, and they still don\u2019t blame him. He\u2019s still seen as this valiant social justice warrior doing everything he can to get even with these evil companies that are trying to kill their customers, deny their customers medicine, deny their customers food, deny their customers water, deny whatever it is. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" RUSH: Here\u2019s Ellen in Falls Church, Virginia.
