This is good news! As more people sign up the premiums will continue to shrink.
The US already spends way, way more per capita on health (with poor results) than anywhere else in the world. This will level the playing field and become a first step in bringing us up to the level of healthcare the rest of the industrialized world enjoys.
Yes, this is a first step to a single payer nationalized system like France has. Enjoy!
Secretly, big US corporations are rooting for this to succeed so it will take the onus off of their backs and allow them to compete more evenly with other foreign multinationals.

This is good news! As more people sign up the premiums will continue to shrink.
Also, as another poster pointed out this is a just a lowering of a projection that was made earlier. They never said actual premiums will go down.
Premiums are projected to increase in 2015. Not decrease.
