Yeah, your county is relatively expensive...more expensive than Marin (at least with my 'stats')...but not as bad as Phoenix.
When I saw the thread started by JimJ in AZ about the 125% increase, I looked up (on Friday) the cheapest bronze estimate for me (non smoker, much older than you) for my county in TX, Clark County/Las Vegas, NV, and Maricopa County/Phoenix, AZ. Later, another poster pointed out to me how to find the preview on Covered California...so I looked up Marin (where I lived before moving to Texas). A few minutes ago I looked up your area (I remember you mentioning in a past post that your house is in or near the Dr. Phillips area).
Cheapest Bronze for me:
My county (Montgomery) in TX: $445 per month
Clark County (Las Vegas) in NV: $377 per month
Maricopa County (Phoenix)--AZ: $777 per month
Marin County---------------in CA: $534 per month (might have been $537, but < $540)
Orange County-------------in FL: $545 per month
you have to pay these ridiculous prices and congressional employees have exempted themselves from obamacare.
rates are much higher than that in many areas. illegal immigrants are a huge burden on the system so if you want to reduce costs -- something has to be done about it. education costs also.
OMFG! I just checked mine... my deductible increased by $1000 to $13100 and my premium went from $1000 to $1353... that is an effing 35% increase... Hillary GO TO EFFING HELL... YOU EFFING THIEF...
Considering the lies Barack Obama told -- while pimping Obamacare -- about the details surrounding his own mother's death, nothing would shock me about the rate increases.
It's evident that this was a poorly-conceived piece of legislation, almost as poorly-conceived as the loser it is named after.
$4000 a year in premiums is ridiculous for a 29 yr. old male non-smoker. And the OP didn't even tell us what the deductibles or co-pays are.
Every single thing the R's said would go wrong with Obamacare did go wrong.
And everything the Ds said about Obamacare was lies and deceit.
