I'm here to tell you that everyone in New York I know had a roughly 34% rate increase as of January 1, 2010. If Congress and Katherine Sebelius would get their heads out of their asses for a moment, they would know that Blue Cross-Blue Shield did this all over the country. So, California ran into some luck with a delay till March, but plenty of other states have already been Blue Cross-Blue Shield's extortion victims.

According to our reader Nunly, Illinois also already had a 35% premium increase too. I guess Barack doesn't know about that. And the fork ran away with the spoon.
