Well you're not wrong. The problem is that the plans being offered are essentially the same plans that they could have purchased individually all along from the same insurance companies (unless they had pre-existing conditions etc. where the ins co could tell them to gently caress off).

Though, if someone is unemployed for instance, the max out of pocket drops along with all the other costs, too, based on your income. That is obviously the main difference now.

Really the problem is STILL the insurance companies offering poo poo plans based on maximum profits. The problem isn't "obamacare," but since most people aren't familiar with how insurance really works, they blame obamacare. Can't blame people for not understanding though, health insurance is incredibly convoluted and hosed up in this country.

oh word?
