Thanks Obummer!

Yes, exactly. This is why I don't have medical insurance. These are the people that it hurts. The middle class. It is based on income to get a subsidy. If you you make one penny over that limit which is around $45,000, there is no subsidy for you. By the way, that is just the bronze plan. The platinum is around $1200 a month. It also has a large deductible but I can't remember how much. I will go back and look.
