That's a fact,but I will try to get it uploaded so you can make your own judgements. And my wife is from England so I will pass on that arguement, I know the facts from there.
And mine could go down by half and I live in the same state. lol Wonder why that is?
Well, since you asked . . .ACA (aka ObamaCare) rates are based on the following:
- Whether you're buying an individual or family plan (family plans will cost more).
- Where you live (This can vary by individual state counties).
- Age (The older you get, the more you pay.)
- Tobacco use (You smoke? Guess what, you're paying more).
If going to the gov't site (
www.healthcare.gov) makes you all nervous and sweaty, then try these guys:
www.thehealthsherpa.com.
This was the site created by a couple of San Francisco computer nerds who actually made a web site that worked when the ACA first opened and kept crashing.
