Re: Enrollment In Obamacare's Federal Exchange, So Far, May Only Be In 'Single Digits
Would you mind posting the comparison to what you have now? Include monthly premium, deductible, out of pocket max, and co-insurance rate.
I signed up for my state's exchange, and it looks much better than what I have. It's a bummer I have to wait for it to kick in, because I sure could use it now. The premiums are about the same as I pay now for much better care. There are half a million people in my state alone who are uninsured, and I think the truth is that most of them want health insurance and have never been willing to jump through the hoops to get it. They're lazy and the mandate will help people go out there and get insurance. The end result will be a better system, one in which people start getting preventative care. It's going to make our country better, and for the many posters in this thread who talk about how horrible they think Obama is, making the country better seems like a pretty good use of our money. Bush - used our money to invade two countries. Obama - used our money to set up affordable health insurance for the majority of our citizens.
I can see why that's so scary to Republicans. No, I'm just kidding, I have no idea why anybody would be terrified of the ACA. We need to reform entitlement programs and get spending down, granted, but Obamacare seems good to me.
