re: 18 States Sue to Challenge Loss of Subsidies

quote:

---

ax payers are on the hook for more money, people in the individual market without subsidies look to have more expensive plans as insurers raise premiums to offset the cost sharing subsidies they will no longer be reimbursed for, and people qualifying for subsidies have to worry about the uncertainty and chaos seeing insurers flee their area. Democrats can now point to this action as Trump taking ownership of healthcare and deliberately attempting to sabotage the market.

You don't get it. Individual market was blowing up well before Trump took office. 23 million in 2014. 20 million in 2016. And 17 million in 2017(see link). People will continue to get priced out of this market regardless of Trump EO or subsidy loss. The damage was done when Obamacare was signed into law.
