IRS: Obamacare Cheapest Plan $20,000 Per Family in 2016

(CNSNews.com) – In a final regulation issued Wednesday, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) assumed that under Obamacare the cheapest health insurance plan available in 2016 for a family will cost $20,000 for the year.

Under Obamacare, Americans will be required to buy health insurance or pay a penalty to the IRS. The IRS's assumption that the cheapest plan for a family will cost $20,000 per year is found in examples the IRS gives to help people understand how to calculate the penalty they will need to pay the government if they do not buy a mandated health plan. The examples point to families of four and families of five, both of which the IRS expects in its assumptions to pay a minimum of $20,000 per year for a bronze plan. “The annual national average bronze plan premium for a family of 5 (2 adults, 3 children) is $20,000,” the regulation says.

I’d say that 20K in 2016 will reach “Cadillac” proportions in 2018. $10.2K for singles and $27.5K for families in 2018 is the treshold then you get hit with the 40% excise tax.

The average income in America is now what 45-55k. Yeah, we can all afford to pay 20k+ for healthcare. I have a solution... Let's invite 25+ million low skilled, poorly educated people and their families into this country and give them all FREE care, education, housing, food.

That right there will fix this proper like! /s

Hard to make parole deductions when nobody’s working. Due to government regulations most of us will be like the old Soviets, standing on a street corner with a toolbox and a sign reading, “Plumbing for cash.”

Once you subtract my rent, this insurance plan (we have 3 kids), and our tithe we’re left with 251/month. That won’t even cover the electric bill which will continue to rise with the war on coal. In my last post I wrote, “I will not comply.” And while that was a statement of defiance against tyranny, really it’s just saying I can’t afford to comply.

But the same plan,without Osama Obama Care,would have been $22,500.We know this because Osama Obama is never mistaken.

And we know that he never lies.

I’ve heard this.

So $1666.66 per month, sure thats “affordable”

The incentive is not to work and have someone else pick up the bill. When no one is working whose going to pick up the bill. Who can save?

The plan is to put everyone who can’t afford $20k for insurance on socialized medicine.

That is fine if you can’t afford the insurance, but what do you do if you get in an accident or suffer a catostrophic illness?

Obamacare isn’t about Healthcare.

It’s a poorly designed scam to vaguely disguise the biggest wealth redistribution in the known history of the world.

You’ll get emergent care for the accident (and a huge bill), but a long, drawn-out illness will be a real problem.

ObamaCARE, like RomneyCARE, was designed by
people who actually hate Americans and doctors/nurses.

Exactly. A bronze plan has a VERY high deductible. Enough that there is no way the average family could afford it.
