We got our latest insurance package and like every year for the past 20 years -- (employer offered) -- employer's cost, our cost went up and we get less for more cost.

Same old -- ACA didn't change the trend -- same as before ACA -- same after.

Same thing happened to me. It has cost me tens of thousands of dollars more since 2011 when I was finally able t get insurance again. I went without it for almost 2 years after Obama took my policy and doctor away. Remember when Obama said if you like your policy you can keep your policy. If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor. Remember that? All lies.

I have heard this from a few people but I have to say, I have heard more stories from thosewho finally have insurance and getting much needed medical attention.

The ACA is hugely flawed but has some benefits. We have to figure out how to balance it. There has to be a way that people can afford a basic standard of health care without others paying insurance premiums in the thousands.

I fear that the repeal and replace won't change the insurance rates. I fear the insurance companies are enjoying their profits. https://www.consumeraffairs.com/news...es-110116.html https://www.cnbc.com/2017/08/05/top-...n-dollars.html

No not maga. All lies. This tax plan hurts the middle class. What do you think this new tax plan will do for your insurance.
