A husband and his wife used to have an insurance policy that helped cover medication, doctor visits, etc. but the insurance company canceled their policy because it was not up to the standards of obamacare thus the couple had to go on the obamacare website to sign up for obamacare. They were appalled at the cost differential, high deductibles, the lack of affordable plans for their budget verses what they once paid for insurance coverage. The obamacare insurance does not cover what their prior insurance covered (these folks are in their forties btw), the cost is higher for coverage (much higher), the deductibles are higher (much higher) and the obamacare does not cover some of the medications their prior insurance covered. This is being repeated over and over nationwide and these people had been lifelong democrat voters. The wakeup call has come in for these lifelong democrat voters and they are learning that the aca is the non-affordable care act aka obamacare. This couple is frightened and confused but realize only now their mistake in having voted democrat all those years. Yes, everyone, this is going to be fun to watch except there are real people with real lives that have been sold a law that they are finding out was a complete lie for and to everyone. Don't know if this couple will quit voting democrat but an opportunity is there to awaken a large number of people and they are being awaken to the fact that obamacare is zer0care.

Once the employer mandate kicks in, there will be millions like that husband/wife you describe. I expect that most companies of size will give employees a sum of money every year (maybe enough for the cheapest plan on the exchange) and direct them to go shopping for their own insurance.
