...lower than who expected??? I know folks was promised that rates would come down. They ain't doin that. Most of them are going to triple and it isn't likely that you will be able to keep your current coverage because you will not be able to afford it.

...insurance is supposed there to keep ya from experiencing financial devastation. $1200 a month for a family of four "is" financial devastation.

Obamacare Rates Lower Than Expected

As Sen. Ted Cruz's faux filibuster continues, the Obama administration has announced that insurance rates under the Affordable Care Act will be lower than expected. Rates vary state by state, but unsubsidized monthly premiums could be as low as $70 per month for an individual and as high as $1,200 for a family of four. The average premium for an individual will be $328 in 2014, before tax credits that most people who use the exchanges will qualify for. However, the rate announcement will give some fuel to Obamacare critics: part of the reason the rates came in lower than expected is because insurance companies created special plans with fewer in-network doctors and hospitals.
