a summary of a oped written by scott walker (with a link to the full article). however, the numbers come from a obama advisor from a study commisioned by scott walker's predecessor.

"this is scott walker, writing in the [color=#2342a8]washington post:

  • 100,000 people will be dropped by their employer-sponsored health insurance;
  • 59 percent of people who buy their own health insurance will experience an average premium increase of 31 percent;
  • 150,000 people will stop buying health insurance in the private sector and will instead become dependent on the government and taxpayers; and
  • between 2014 and 2019, obamacare could cost wisconsin taxpayers $1.12 billion; after all federal aid and tax credits are applied, the state's portion of the bill will be $433 million.

these estimates come from a study by jon gruber, an architect of romneycare and a paid advisor to the white house during the construction of obamacare."
