"the Supreme Court will make a decision in June 2015"

Try as I may, I cannot accept this delay. Is it not said the "Justice delayed is justice denied." 7 months - seriously? That negates a whole insurance cycle.

In the Commonwealth of Virginia, no subsidy will thus be paid

I think the court ruling was put on stay. The subsidies continue for the time being.

This is exactly what happens when you have know nothing arrogant people like Gruber having input into things they no little to nothing about - though from his own words he clearly thinks he knows better than the average American. Sad. Very sad. What has happened to American medicine is devastating, and IMHO we have just begun to see the negative impact. We are going to need to ‘reform the reform’.

“at any income a deductible out of pocket of $12,600 and a premium of $7,224 per year. The total $19,824 represents 40 percent of $50,000 and 20 percent of $100,000 gross income

So 40% of $50000 income goes to healthcare if you get sick. How is that affordable and that would bankrupt a lot of people.

Gold, silver, and bronze plans. Even unconstitutional (illegal) compulsory health insurance is a tiered caste system.

I’m a Virginian. My premium for a silver level policy will go up 60% if I choose to renew. Sen. Kaine’s response to the premium increases is 1) apply for a subsidy (I won’t qualify) and 2) sponsor a bill to allow a “copper” level policy. IOW, Kaine has no solution.

Sh** plans to cover the cost of freebies to the gimsmedats.

The premiums have to be paid....the deductibles do not. If one just says screw it I will not go to the doctor because I can’t afford it then people will once again use the ER for extreme cases that could have been handled for less money and resources had routine health care been available.

The delusion that the ACA had ANYTHING to do with healthcare or insurance seems to persist. The ACA was about government control period paragraph end of story
