A huge topic in this years election has been Obamacare, and if it was good for our nation or not. If you have watched the debates you have seen Hilary's viewpoint on Obamacare, which is to keep it but to restructure it. As for Trump he wants to completely wipe out Obamacare. In this article you are able to see how Obamacare is going to affect premiums in all 50 states. Premiums are projected to increase by an average of 25 percent, and are expected to increase by double digits in 31 states. And if you look at the table at the bottom of the article you can see that premiums are expected to increase by triple digits in the state of Arizona. It will be interesting to see if Clinton becomes are next president how she plans to restructure Obamacare, and how that will affect future premiums in the 50 states. It will also be interesting to see if Trump is elected president how he plans to just wipe out Obamacare, and how that will affect future premiums. This is a big topic for me as well, because I will be graduating next in 2017 and these plans will affect me in the future.

My only question is are the premiums adjusted based on household incomes or are they fixed?
ReplyDeleteI took a look at the article. There were a few states that didn't have data, and I'm wondering why. It is cool to see how each state is affected.
ReplyDeleteVery interesting to see how each state is projected to be affected; i liked that they included the chart. Now that it is past the election, were just going to have to wait and see what Trump's plan of action is.
