I don’t qualify for ACA subsidies, so I pay full price for my health care insurance. In 2024 it was $900/month for a crummy high deductible plan. This year it’s $1275/month for the same crummy high deductible plan. Thank you for $375/month tax direct from Trump and the GOP.
Are we “winning” yet?
Weren’t the rates for your plan established in late 2024? All others were. Trump didn’t take over until Jan 20 after your first premium was due for 2025.
I’m still waiting on that better and cheaper healthcare that was promised by Trump a decade ago … but I know, of course, there will never be a Republican healthcare plan that doesn’t transfer even more of the cost onto citizens.
