major players in the insurance business have said, "We don't think we want to get involved in California or New York." Why do you think that is?

You realize these starting rates don't mean anything, right? They're designed to get people on board with these new products, knowing full well the states will have no choice but to allow them to raise rates in a big way. I believe you are exactly correct. It was clear to me the NY Bridge plan I got into was strictly a come on to get me on board. I got what I felt was a gold plan for $418/month. I am quite sure my rate will be much higher next year if I earn the same as I did last year......meaning no subsidies.............I should know in a month or two. If it goes up more than 20%..........I'll opt out.....catch me if you can.......this govt is so inept, I don't think they can.

Even the damned unions have turned against it, and you KNOW it has to be horribly bad for them not to support it. Their concern being overblown of course...as shown by DATA and not emotion. They also don't like the tax on their cadillac plans...some folks forget how they got to where they are....human nature I suppose. ...and of couse there is always selfish interests in the story. Look at this guy...bitching about practically nothing. What a shining example of american FU i've got mine. Papa John's John Schnatter, CEO of Papa John's, said in August that Obamacare will cost the company $0.11 to $0.14 per pizza. But he has maintainedthat Papa John's offers and will continue to offer health insurance to all of its employees. Al
