Who said they were high deductible ?
Provide links please to your "facts".
HIGH deductible policies, like the one I once was previously forced to purchase with a $5,000 deductible, are a fact of life in today's world.
I paid close to $400 dollars a month for a $5,000 deductible policy. It was the only policy that I could afford.
There are even higher deductible policies being offered so that people can "afford to stay covered" which are still very expensive options....
The only ones who benefit from these policies are the insurers. It's like money in the bank for them.
I don't need to post a link to prove that fact. If you're not already aware of the high deductible policies that are being promoted by health insurance companies, you simply don't want to know.

Republicans who don't like the health care law should move to a country where they can be freely abused by insurance corporations.
The Republican Party represents the interests of the Health Insurance Companies.
How much clearer can they make that fact than when their House Speaker (Boehner) is booked to deliver the Keynote Address at the upcoming Annual Insurance Lobbyist Summit?

They are actually in favor of the bulk of the reform law. Even the mandate, although they say otherwise because they know it will prevail and remain in the law. Now, they do, and will, have issues with the 80/20 constraint of the exchange because that would serve to limit the profitability for the Ins Cos. That would be a big no no to their major campaign funders.

That's not the same as the college plans.
You may have been forced into it but there are others who have money and choose to use the high deductible plans because they'd rather have low premiums and pay when they need to.

Most Republicans are fine with the health care law privately. "Obamacare" is basically "Romneycare" and was first proposed by Republicans in 1994 and was created by the Heritage Foundation, a conservative think tank.

You mean, the Republicans aren't being honest with their constituents?
It's going to be another very interesting year.
