If they get bills 10 or 20% higher than they were... or get watered down insurance... they will see the Republicans as having been right to kick and scream so much.
Normally I'd say the guys in charge are smart enough to have done the math and figured out the result ahead of time... but in this instance, it appears they are actually stupid (not just acting stupid) and I'm unsure if they thought things through beyond the showmanship level.

I have a copy of our group policy sitting here on my desk. It's up 14% and WPS has in the proposal guaranteed that the 14% is good for the rest of this year and all of next.
That was 14% on top of the existing $1350 per month per family that we paid last contract.
The quality of the insurance stayed exactly the same as what it was.
$1000 deductible and another $2000 for any hospitalization.
