13.1% HMSA health insurance increase on the back of a 7% increase last jan. 1st.

HMSA says all due to Obamacare.

We might muddle through this year but I expect this time next year the wheels will come off the "recovery"

You might have seen the articles this week from zillow et.al. referencing 35% +/- of homes with mortgages are underwater or effectively underwater with not enough equity to sell and 5-7m homes in default. I just saw a foreclosure come up today here in hawaii that was bought in 06 and guaranteed hasn't made payment since 07. Zombie real estate market moves on. How much is added to GDP by 5 million homeowners NOT making mortgage payments?

Fed has shifted its QE spiel to housing from jobs.
