The only people making out on this "deal" will be the insurance companies and their shareholders.

Under previous private insurance, a 30 year old could get insurance for $60 per month. Now you can't get it for less than $90.

Thank you obamacare!
60 dollars per month !! Where and when?? Maybe in 1950's that was the price. But nowadays it is much much more than that. I think the average for a 30 year old is around 200 dollars.. Now I am not sure whether universal healthcare will lower this rate but even if it stays the same it is still good because of pre-existing condition coverage and other benefits..

Strange, when I plug in 30 year old it says free. Free is less than $60. It all depends on how much money you make.

What kind of crappy insurance was that for $60, and what was the deductible?

Also, most state exchanges have government subsidies that automatically reduce the premiums you pay substantially under certain earning levels. For a family of 4 in california, it's about $94k/yr or less to get subsidized insurance. For us it works out to a little less than we're paying right now, but for much BETTER coverage at the Silver Plus level
and it's still with Blue Cross, our same carrier.

You can check what it would cost you at coveredca.com if you're in California, and pre-existing condition denials are a thing of the past.

awesome, b/c i dont already wait 2-4 weeks to see a doctor. by the time i see them i'll either be dead or my issue has resolved while i suffered

now all these poor people will make doctors care less about patients while others wait forever for appointments.

why cant we just let people who dont care about things continue to not care about it?

everyone doesn't have a right to healthcare just like they dont have a right to college, a house, a car, etc. ..and before you start screaming - recognize the difference between having the right to have something vs the right to acquire it.

Tell that to the GOPs in the Podium that say Obamacare will destroy the private insurance companies. Being one of those shareholders, I have a smile on my face.
