“In the next few days, more than 20 million Americans are going to receive notices that will indicate that their premiums, co-pays and deductibles are about to skyrocket, which will bankrupt many Americans and prevent others from being able to access the healthcare they need.”

“In 2023 and 2024, 80 percent of marketplace enrollees could find a plan for $10 or less per month on HealthCare.gov, the federal marketplace that operates in 31 states (19 states and the District of Columbia run their own marketplaces).”

“The enhanced subsidies have translated into higher enrollment in ACA marketplace plans and fewer uninsured people. They helped increase enrollment in the marketplaces from 12 million in 2021 to a record 24.2 million in 2025.”

“Medicare Premium Bill....Current Premium Due...Total Amount Due $555.00”

That’s from a document that was and now is on my dining room table.

That was $185/month - for nothing at all in my case, for over 22 months.

“Medicare for All” would be $185/month per person.

It would be reasonable to prorate the premium by age, so a kid about a tenth my age would have a ~$19/month minimum premium.

But the AFFORDABLE car Act was supposed to fix that.
Health care was going to be more affordable for the average person. The only people it was supposed to increase for were the people who had the “Caddilac” plans like ME!. Where I had a $20 copay for any Dr. visit. Where a trip to the ER was at most $100 out of pocket. Which cost me under $400/month.

Now, my Health insurance has gone up in price and I am on a high deductible plane($6500 annually). Where I put $500 a month in addition to the $600 premium into a Health Savings Account. Then pay for doctor visits out of there.

So, SORRY, the Dems/GOPe LIED To you all again. SUCKERS!
