The political gain will come from the sticker shock coming from those who will
not be heavily subsidized. This pain will extend to the election.
Your AGI has to be greater than 4 times the Federal Poverty Level. That is around 100K for a family of 4 or 65K for a married couple. I suspect that the majority of people subject to the non-subsidized ACA rates are already Republican voters. The 47% crowd looks at this as there new birth right as handed to them by Obama and the Democrats.

Plus apparently there is no income verification process you just have to state that your income is less than the threshold and you get the subsidy.

Liar Loans redux.
