It makes no economic sense to pay for these high deductible b.s. plans. A rational healthy person will a) not buy or pay for the insurance b) pay the fine of 1% of adjusted gross income c) wait until they are hospitalized before they buy insurance, and d) stop paying for the insurance after they get better.

As a young adult who should be supporting Obama 100% according to the MSM, I checked my states exchange website. The basic bronze plan is almost $300/month with a $6,300 deductible before insurance covers 60% of the costs.
Or to put it another way, once I spend almost $10K out of pocket, insurance begins to cover part of my expenses. I’m choosing option “a” and “c.” Hopefully I won’t be geting a refund this year so the IRS won’t be getting my “fine.”
