Passing this along................
This is a post from the Obamacare web page and not my actual experience:

"I actually made it through this morning at 8:00 A.M. I have a preexisting condition (Type 1 Diabetes) and my income base was 45K-55K annually I chose tier 2 "Silver Plan" and my monthly premiums came out to $597.00 with $13,988 yearly deductible!!! There is NO POSSIBLE way that I can affor...d this so I "opt-out" and chose to continue along with no insurance. I received an email tonight at 5:00 P.M. informing me that my fine would be $4,037 and could be attached to my yearly income tax return. Then you make it to the "REPERCUSSIONS PORTION" for "non-payment" of yearly fine. First, your drivers license will be suspended until paid, and if you go 24 consecutive months with "Non-Payment" and you happen to be a home owner, you will have a federal tax lien placed on your home. You can agree to give your bank information so that they can easy "Automatically withdraw" your "penalties" weekly, bi-weekly or monthly! This by no means is "Free" or even "Affordable."

Ray, you know that I agree with you that the ACA is the devil, but in the interest of fairness, how much of a subsidy would this person get to offset the monthly premium?

I call BS on this. Carriers cannot offer a deductible higher than $5000 on the exchange and out of pocket limits cannot be higher than $6350 (total of deductible and coinsurance). A deductible over $10k is not possible on any exchange.

Mags claims that insurance companies only make 3%. Insurance companies try to fuck the people, seen it time and time again. They make caring for people frustrating when they tie our hands

ObamaCare Could Bankrupt America, AARP Makes Billions


The Congressional Budget Office has revealed that the true cost of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, also known as ObamaCare, will reach $1.76 trillion dollars over ten years, not the $940 billion promised by the Obama administration.

This staggering 87% increase in cost is for a program that is certain to damage the American economy and, quite simply, hurt people ? especially seniors, who can expect to receive lower quality care and even rationed care.

These concerns and many more are why a majority of Americans are opposed to ObamaCare ? and why many want it repealed by Congress or overturned by the Supreme Court. In spite of this public outcry, so-called advocacy groups like the AARP have been vocal in their support of ObamaCare.

Recently, information has surfaced that could explain the AARP?s stance on national healthcare. According to a House Ways and Means report, the AARP stands to make an estimated $1 billion ? perhaps much more ? over ten years if the president?s healthcare plan remains in place. This is surely an incentive for the AARP to support the plan, even though it could hurt seniors and Baby Boomers.

This has many older Americans, including AARP members, perplexed. How could an agency that claims to be the voice of American seniors actively support a program that will harm many of them? This has caused many AARP members to sever their ties to the group and seek out other benefits organizations that serve the over-50 population.
