    1. Did you read the article? The subsidies work by lowering the monthly premium and out-of-pocket costs for eligible people who buy plans through the health insurance marketplace (not an employee sponsor plan). I’d assume everyone’s health insurance will go up based on these actions. Instead of using a some tax dollars (subsidies) the government is nickel and diming it’s citizens to death.
