    Default Wow... Hannity calls the ACA hotline...

    At the top of his radio program today, Sean Hannity called in to an Obamacare call center. Hannity was able to get through to an operator after only several moments of waiting. He spoke to the operator for nearly 10 minutes about Obamacare, what her thoughts of it are and what kind of response she has received so far. The operator was very friendly and had no problem answering all of Hannity's questions. ....

    OPERATOR: Umm, no, not really.
    I imagine that no one likes it because they don't like having to have to pay for insurance, the size of a car payment or more, when previously it was just "given" to them as part of benes and not because they understand that it's bad legislation. Case in point; I caught a few minutes of Rush's fill-in yesterday and a young woman called it complaining about the hidden "costs" as part of ACA. She said her payment would be $178 per month with a $6000 deductible for this and a $4000 deductible for that they "don't tell you about" so would have to pay $14000 dollars. It sounds like she doesn't understand that she just described the basics of insurance which ACA has little to do with. I think it's great she doesn't like ACA but it didn't sound like she knows much about it and the British dude didn't bother to correct her. It probably wouldn't have been good radio though.
