Particularly interesting was this line:

"Average health care premiums are forecast to jump by 6.3 percent in 2013, according to Aon Hewitt"

So much for the "Affordable" in the formal name of ObamaCare: The "Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act"

Also found out that the government lowered the allowable balance able to be saved in a HSA (Healthcare Savings Account). This was stressed by our benefits department as coming from the government, not the company.

Gee, thanks - so I'm now not allowed to save as much for the purpose of paying health care costs, and must rely more on insurance. So much for the "Protection" part of the PPACA title cited above.
