>> Health Plan Cost for New Yorkers Set to Fall 50%

As usual, NYT is carrying water for Obamacare.

I predict that within a day or two we'll see a flurry of stories setting the record straight, just as happened when CA claimed rates were being cut when in fact they were being increased.

NY's rates are the highest in the country (due in significant part to state regulations that already implement some of the higher costing items in Obamacare). So, a 50% cut wouldn't bring them in line with where they would be if reasonable policy guidelines were allowed. But I seriously doubt these figures will prove to be factual. I would not be surprised to see more reputable news sources correct the NYT before the day is up, actually.
