ObamaCare Is Live

The exchanges seem way more expensive than what I can get on the private market.
Good luck getting healthy people to join...

For a government agency they have a pretty good mobile site, I guess when you want something badly enough...

So basically at my next renewal I can expect my private insurance rate to skyrocket.
Yay.

most peoples will because their insurance companies wont be able to deny people for preexisting conditions.  That means people will sign up when theyre sick and not pay when theyre healthy

Yup, that's what it seems like. I already got a letter from my insurance company stating how my current plan will not be available for purchase soon due to the changes in what they have to start covering.

Nice video but not completely true. Most of the subsidy money is $$$ that are already being spent by the govt for uninsured hospital care and charity programs. These dollars are simply being shifted and aren't technically new costs and therefore shouldn't significantly impact plan rates (not that other factors won't...)

Since insurance companies are obligated to provide all kinds of preventative healthcare (yearly physicals etc.), the price of insurance will go up for everyone now, but go down in the future since people will be getting diagnosed earlier and early intervention treatments are cheaper than late intervention.
