Steel Plant Manager to Obama: Why Are Health Care Costs Rising?by Josh Feldman | 1:47 pm, October 4th, 2014President Obama held a town hall yesterday in Indiana, and faced a question from a steel plant manager about rising health care costs. And Obama told him he might not be “shopping effectively enough.”
The man said, “One of the questions I had is about the health care costs. We are seeing almost a double-digit increase in health care costs every year. So do you think that trends will go down and what can we do to control that trend?”
Obama answered, “The question is whether you guys are shopping effectively enough, because it turns out that this year, and in fact over the course of the last four years, premiums have gone up at the slowest rate in 50 years.”
He touted this fact quite a bit and ended by telling the man he’ll make sure he gets put in contact with health care people. Obama said, “I’ll bet we can get you a better deal.”
