well. tell me what you were paying before bamacare- look at your records, and tell me what you are paying now. because many people are saying they are paying significantly more. where is truth? like i said, the whole thing is a mess. i think my d-i-l from Colombia said folks there pay 9% inc tax, but i'll ask her again. right now, a least expensive, higher out of pocket/deductible for a 62yo woman is $1700/mo. terrible. why weren't we allowed in to a pool across state lines? why does everyone need all of the mandates? companies that offered simple plans had to end them; they were not expensive. people lost hours at work under the obamacare mandates, cut from full time to 30 hours.
