Obamacare at the grocery store? No way! Way.
Yes, the Affordable Care Act (ACA) otherwise known as Obamacare will be available on grocery store shelves very soon in the form of a one billion dollar annual price increase passed onto consumers.
The do-gooder intentions of the few become the price increase for the many. The notional proposition is that James and Jane Goodfellow are unable to properly shop at the grocery store hence big brother needs to lend a hand, at a price.
As reported by Cheryl Chumley of the Washington Times:
"New Food and Drug Administration rules to be imposed under ‘Obamacare’ could lead to higher food prices, according to grocery store executives who are casting wary eyes on the looming mandate.
The mandate could boost grocery owners’ costs by $1 billion in its first year, Fox News reports. And that means higher food costs to consumers.”
