As anti-ObamaCare as I am, I have a bit of skepticism about her claim. I get insurance through my employer so I don't need to go through an exchange, but for shits and giggles and I went on the Silver State Exchange Web site and put in my information just to see what I would qualify for. With an income this year of $93,000 I was able to sign up for a Bronze Plan with a $5 or 6k deductible with a premium of $220 a month. That is still a monumental rip off, but nowhere the raping she is claiming. Granted, the cost of these plans vary wildly from state to state, so she may not be exaggerating, but that still seems like an awful lot for just one person. I have to wonder if she was looking at the most expensive plan.
Having a $5K deductible is like have no insurance and $220 for a $5K deductible is insane. She claimed a $2K deductible. Got back and look at the premium when you more than cut in half your deductible.
