re: #10 lawhawk

If you have ridiculously expensive insurance through your employer can you dump it and go via the exchanges? Our insurance is about to be around 20-25 percent of our income via the employer plan.(new employer, new insurance, and god help me this company sucks. Put the husband on salary and they’re working him over 70 hours a week and paying him for 40) I think it’s going to kill us financially. I hope I’m wrong but the whole thing is unclear and the HR people at my husband’s job are not at all helpful. I do know we meet the income requirements for subsidies, but beyond that I have no earthly idea WTF.

Of course I’m in GA, and our idiot Governor and Insurance Commissioner are doing everything they can to fuck over Georgians anyhow, so we may just be screwed no matter what. I’ve read a lot about this but I still don’t understand it all and I wish I knew someone who does who could explain it so I can.
