Why don't you pay your fair share about quit being racist against the poor!?

Same thing happened at my company. The comparable rates from the ACA site and the "private insurers" site were quite a bit different. We ended up back on where we started with an increase of $65/month.......with a higher deduct and less coverage. WTF man.

Premium and deductible went up for my wife and I. So much so that we would have actually saved money paying for our child's birth out of pocket compared to paying our premium for 12 months + the deductible....

private insurance isn't the problem so much as how they are regulated by the federal government. But the ACA decided to expand the already dysfunctional system...brilliant

What's really funny about this is when you apply the principle to the medical field and doctors......

Lets say I'm a doctor who accepts Medicare/insurance. I HAVE to bill a cash pay patient as much as I bill Medicare. It is illegal to do otherwise. Medicare (the govrnment) won't let you bill them more than you charge a patient without insurance. But that sane government lets the cost of ACA insurance to be charged at a higher rate than private insurance, thru the same company, with the same coverage!
I hope my posts makes sense to you guys like it does in my head....

The hypocrisy is unbelievable!
