If so, how do you like it versus what you had before?

My daughter is on it with her family.
The premium, which is taken out of her pay, is $600 month with a $6000 deductible.
Because the premium is 25% of her wages, she can't afford to put any toward the deductible.

Bear,

Can I assume she also gets a subsidy?

The subsidy would be figured into the premium. So if she is, it isn't doing anything for her.

Here's the kicker, bear, and I can only speak from the Illinois standpoint..........I'm guessing the actual "cost" of her policy is closer to 1000-1200 month.

A friend of mine who is self employed (Realtor) here in Washington has Obummercare. She gets no subsidies. Her premium for 2017 went up from 700 to 1200 per month. More than her mortgage. Such a deal! She 60 and has to pay for pre-natal care.

What good is a policy if you can't use it ??
Especially if you are FORCED to buy it !!!

Here's a question: Are you going to support the Republican budget in the House that would repeal Obamacare but add 8 Trillion Dollars to the debt?
Well that's the one they're looking for. Great job GOP.

Frank, do you have a source, (a reputable one) for this 8 trillion nonsense? This is just a number the left wing nuts pulled out of thin air.

Funny you should ask. Rand Paul is my source and he's against it.

You libs had no business doing anything with the insurance market.
Another overreach without getting a fork stuck in it.

If you would listen carefully and hear what Trump is saying you would know that he is not going to repeal the whole Obummercare but just parts of it. Now if you want to believe him on that or not is up to you. Source, straight from the horse himself on ABC Nightly News.
