A recent poll has stated that President Obama's health care reform plan was opposed by 56 per cent people making it not so popular with everyone.

Though people can not be told to stop thinking but the government can make an attempt to ask health insurers to stop talking out loud what basic economic theory indicates.

A letter was written by Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius to the head of America's Health Insurance Plans, a trade group. It was stated in the letter that because of the new law some insurance companies were reported as saying that they have had to raise premiums.

Sebelius denied this charge and stated, "We will not stand idly by as insurers blame their premium hikes and increased profits on the requirement that they provide consumers with basic protections."

This clearly indicates that for anyone who opposes the administration will have to face harsh punishment.

These changes might be beneficial for consumers but everything has a cost. Insurers would have provided it all if that were the case. Companies that are forced by the government to provide more and better services to customers then prices are bound to rise to cover the cost.
