The GOP is fleecing America. My ACA coverage will go up a minimum of 58% from last year.

My deductibles will more than double even with the 58% hike. tRump and the GOP are just fleecing America.

JESUS CHRIST! It would be one thing if I had a pre-existing condition or something terminal, but I've got a clean bill of health. This is all out war on the 66 million Americans that voted for the popular winner last year.

except for people whose income is too high to qualify for a subsidy. So if the premium goes up, then your subsidy should be going up, too.

But no matter, $10,000 to pay for health insurance within the ACA. They're forcing us out onto the shit plans that don't cover anything.
