Here Jeffries predicts disaster:



He gives several examples of plans that will go from costing the consumer three to five hundred dollars per mont to two to three thousand per month.

True?

Doubtful, especially since those are prices under the "Affordable Care Act." We didnt get the subsidies until COVID. Prices were not that high then without the subsidies.

But lets pretend it is true:

What happens then?

Families won't have the money. It's too much. Insurance companies will quickly lose their customer base, starting with the healthiest consumers. So they will have only their most costly clients and not the ones who pay mandated premiums but never file claims.

They will have to raise their premiums which will drive away custmers who only occasionally use their insurance. Now they only have heavy users.

Unless they lower their prices in order to keep their base. They RAISED rates when government started picking up everyone's tab. Why wouldnt they? Now they will lower them or go out of bid'ness..

Jeffries is concerned about hard-working Americans - NOT. Because that is who pays taxes to fund these subdidies thst line the pockets of the indurance industry.
 
And . . . if the government is defunded since Wednesday, then these subsidies have stopped. So everyone's health premiums will tripple or quadruple? Mine hasn't, have yours?

Better get your party to open it back up without giving you 1.3 TRILLION dollars to piss away. The ball is in your court. You own this...

There were subsidies since the first policy in 2013 was written for Jan 1, 2014. He's must be talking about the expanded subsidies in the ARA that Biden signed during covid.

They end December 31st. That is the expanded.

The GOP loses the Presidency, Congress and the Senate for the next twenty years.

. . . yeah, I'm sure everything Jeffries claims is accurate. The GOP has just been itching for a way to commit suicide in the eyes of the public, the same as the DNC has.

Yes, but that assumes congress authorizes the spending. Right now there are no federal paychecks (except for Congress), no subsidies, no open national parks.

NO money is authorized to be spent.

the average health insurance premium for families skyrocketed after Obama Care was implemented .. that's just an undisputed fact ..
 
What will happen is this:

Insurance companies will cover their clients wirhout the subsidies, both during the shutdown and after the end of the year, when the subsidies end. They will not raise premiums too unaffordable rates.

Because selling health insurance, it's very lucrative, with or without the subsidies thanks to the enforced purchase this of Cadillac plans by everyone.

The subsidies were just more revenue for the insurance companies who are heavy donors to both political parties.

The sky will not fall. Granny will get her gallbladder removed and the kids will get their mandated vaccines. Even the covid non vaccine will be available to anyone still uninformed enough to want.

Nope, there is monies already at what the subsidy would be without it being expanded. I guess you should say the old rate. Received notice today from my company that's the way it's going to be and on exchange business starts November 1st and if they happen to expand them we'll just have to do double work and redo everyone's renewal for them.

How many people could not get insurance if we went before obamacare.

My auto insurance has gone down twice in the past year and doesn't have a damn thing to do with this discussion.

you asked what insurance would cost if Obama care didn't exist .. I answered it would still be high because of the massive cost of living increase that happened during the last admin .. and the average Americans car insurance went up over 50% during the last admin ..

AI Overview

Car insurance prices have gone up significantly since 2020, with various sources reporting increases from around 36% to 56% by late 2024 or mid-2025.
