Wednesday I finally dealt with the marketplace about my insurance for the coming year. Kept the same plan. My premium significantly more than doubled. Yes, I am making a bit more money, but not nearly justifying the level of increase. The difference alone in premium increase eats up significantly more than a third of the increase in pay. ($5,000 in pay, $2,000 in premium increase.) Premium alone is now nearly half the amount my rent is. F****** crazy!!!!!


The state of insurance/medicine/medical in this country is a ******* ******* disgrace.


Oh damn I’m so sorry your plan has gone up so much. It’s beyond ridiculous !!!!

I truly believe it’s really a population control issue and no one can convince me it’s not.

Since Obamacare was rolled out , peoples insurance cost doubled tripled and more. Yes everyone can get a plan since they have some that are zero premium but the enormous deductibles leave most people to just pay for Doctor appts , blood work and medications totally out of pocket the entire year. It’s really for a hospital stay or catastrophic illness.

More people use to qualify for help, but not anymore, hospitals and Doctors use to be able to accept more reasonable payment plans, now ? It’s just cheaper to die.

Our health care system is truly a disgrace you are correct.

I don’t know what it will take to fix it.. any of these “ medicare” for all ideas .. sounds great but instead of premiums being blamed it’s going to be just taxed right out of anyone’s money no matter where it comes from.

I’ll stop rating now !!! It just really upsets me.

I am very sorry you are losing so much of your income
