That’s exactly the question I have. Somehow I think not. I got my cancellation letter and it tells me my corresponding plan on the exchange will almost double my premium ($371 to $738). Why would they want to keep offering my old plan when I can pay double for a shiny new one?
I keep remembering this video where this woman defending Obamacare saying that if it’s not passed people will be dying in the streets. First off you have to buy it. Secondly it’s insurance not care. You have to go to a hospital or doctor that will take it, and finally, you have to prove you paid in like $ 6500 in deductible before you’d get so-called “free care”. Those Liberal morons didn’t see this coming and it’ll be a hoot to listen to them scream!
The breakdown is happening too fast. The insurers have a bailout baked into Obamacare, but perhaps they're realizing they are not ever going to sell very many of those "shiney new" policies, and getting back those old policies and the customers that go with them could be looking pretty good about now. The bailout doesn't work if the industry dies altogether. Because it's flaring out so fast, the insurers have perhaps finally realized they've been duped, and would be willing to back off the whole sorry idea, while there's still time (and there is). Perhaps they'll decide they don't want to wait around for the evil emperor to say, "Young fool...only now, at the end, do you understand..."
