Yeah....screw the Constitution and laws. What could go wrong.
*CBO is a mostly bullshite organization, imo. They'll bark out any number thats needed for an agenda. See ObamaCare*
The math is very simple Dale.
The government is required to pay out the premium tax subsidies. That is not stopping.
The private insurers are required by law to administer the cost-sharing subsidies. The things that bring down people's out-of-pocket expenses and deductibles.
To offset those loses of being forced to pay those cost-sharing subsidies without reimbursement, the insurers are over-compensating by raising premiums to cover those costs. Raising the cost to the un-subsidized consumer and to the taxpayer. There is no magic BS, this is pretty straight forward.
* Then, to add to it, like with re-insurance and risk corridor payments, the bigger insurers are going to try and litigate and get some of those cost-sharing payments back on a case by case basis. Tying up courts, and like those battles, will probably win a few cases in certain areas. double-dipping the taxpayer, which the CBO didn't try and forecast.

so the population gets to feel the real effects of the ACA? sounds OK to me
much better for them to feel it directly, through their premiums, than indirectly, through taxes

Thats nice. How about if I don't want to buy any of it? What if millions of people don't want any of it?
