A couple in Door County, Wisconsin told me their premium is rising by over $550 a month next year. Everything is already too expensive, so where are they supposed to find 6,500 extra dollars in their budget? Another couple from Butternut, Wisconsin told me their premiums are going from $400 per month to over $5,000 per month. That's $55,000 more a year. As they wrote to me, health care tax breaks are not just numbers on paper. (01:34–01:44)
