Jackson should do research

Wed., July 1, 2015

Sally Jackson (June 18) of Spokane seems to have forgotten that insurance premiums have been climbing since the implementation of Obamacare.

She also seems to forget that insurance companies hit a jackpot when young healthy people who would not likely buy health insurance were now forced to. More money coming in from people not likely to use the insurance was practically a bribe from the IRS forcing people to buy insurance.

Jackson might want to do a little research before she launches into an uninformed partisan diatribe.
