My premiums have doubled in the last few years. I guess I'm lucky??

Holy shite, it hasnt even been 30 days since the election and he's not even in office yet. DJT takes office Jan 20, 2017. You can start your 100 day count then.

Obama failed to deliver on his healthcare promises. That said, Trump will fail also. Premiums will be significantly higher by this time next year and Im willing to make a ban bet on it.

I'm not as certain as you are, but I agree that it's going to be hard to fix. It's like putting toothpaste back into the tube.

OP should check into a sharing ministry.

Yeah?

He's not even in office yet and he's bringing back jobs, the stock market is spiking and he's making Obama look a little baby back bitch.

I had my doubts. Not anymore.

My premium is already at $1,100 per month. If it doubles I'm better off paying out of pocket for just about everything.

Last year I took the penalty.

It was far cheaper.

I'm paying over $1,800 per month for family coverage in 2017. And the penalty is not cheaper.

Here's a little context as to how it affects me:

I am above average in income earned...
My monthly premium for 2017 will require me to work 3 days (after tax) each month to pay for it...
My deductible is so high that I'll never meet it barring some significant health problem...

Bottom line - the entire program was designed to have productive people provide benefits to slackers.

Because there is a difference between healthcare and health insurance

From what I hear Obama post presidency will be sitting on the board of a major Insurance corporation. This was his plan all along. Ruined health care to go to a one payer system where he controls it post presidency. Hillary was part of this. She was the rubber stamp. Trump is the enema! We are going to flush this shite down the drain.MAGA!

He's not even president yet. Your mother should be in jail for the amount of times she apparently dropped you on your head.

I was told by a very educated individual on this subject, "if anyone actually has to pay the penalty, fire your accountant"
