Premiums are going to keep going through the roof. Don't believe me ask Rand Paul. People who could only afford it with subsidies will not keep coverage.


Doesn't Ryancare offer huge tax credits to offset premiums?

If I'm understanding this correctly, I actually like the tax credit idea better than the direct subsidy (to the insurance companies on behalf of the customer). It puts the money directly in the customers hands first.

No. Unless you consider $3,500 as huge.

That would cover a month or two of family coverage.

They are relatively small and are based on age. They equal, at best, a couple months worth of premiums.
