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

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?

I believe the cost savings reduction premium is to remain the same, even though insurance companies are no longer getting the subsidy. Therefore the tax credits will still be issued. Insurance companies are going to have to raise rates on everybody else to cover the cost.
