Our health insurance payments are down to zero now, thanks to Obamacare.
That is, we no longer have health insurance. We’re performing without a net.
It’s really not that big a deal for us, btw. We’re both 60 and healthy. We also don’t expect to need a lot of health care. Maybe the occasional broken arm, etc. But that stuff costs less to repair than one mont’s health care premium.

One of my wife’s acquaintences beat stage four cancer using the Gerson therapy, no “real” doctors involved. The only thing we care to use them for is stuff like, as I mentioned earlier, broken arms. Most everything else we can prevent via diet or fix ourselves.
Health care in the US is a scam. We choose not to participate.
Um, yeah, true to a certain point. You still get dinged 1% of your gross income the first year, eventually 2.5% - and that's if the creeps keep penalty tax rates the same for the uninsured.
On the other hand, if you move to Mexico or China and file under multiple TINs (even from the same address) for multiple IRS EITC refunds, you can collect millions in "free" taxpayer sucker money.
Your choice.
