Medical insurance prices rising due to ObamaCare

Insurance companies are telling regulators that Obamacare is forcing price increases. The Wall Street Journal explains which provisions in ObamaCare are causing this to happen now:

Democrats front-loaded the legislation [ObamaCare] with early provisions they hoped would boost public support. Those include letting children stay on their parents' insurance policies until age 26, eliminating co-payments for preventive care and barring insurers from denying policies to children with pre-existing conditions, plus the elimination of the coverage caps.

Weeks before the election, insurance companies began telling state regulators it is those very provisions that are forcing them to increase their rates.

Democrats I know get furious when someone suggests that Democrats think money grows on trees. If they don't think money grows on trees, who did they think was going to pay for the costs of these new policies?
