***that his premiums, now $309 a month, could rise further with the subsidy cut,***

I’m retired, got a great insurance plan from my former company, and I’m paying more than that, And I’m happy with it!

I wonder how much the premiums would be if it didn't include mandatory maternity care as well as the other assorted junk that was thrown in as freebies for everyone..

And correct me if I'm wrong, not only are these direct payments to insurers illegal, aren't they also supposed to be distributed as tax credits to the taxpayer (as exemplified in the SCOTUS decision that it was a tax?)

Or are insurance companies getting rebates to issue insurance?

Geez, my wife and I in our 70’s, are paying more per month than that between my retirement monthly insurance payments and our SS monthly payments into MediCare.

We recently joined Kaiser because their yearly $ caps are better for us versus our private coverage.
