“Internal cost estimates from 17 of the nation’s largest insurance companies indicate that health insurance premiums will grow an average of 100 percent under Obamacare, and that some will soar more than 400 percent, crushing the administration’s goal of affordability.

The 17 companies include Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield and Kaiser Foundation.”
