I made a lot of changes Dennis Swartz . My daughter is now on the military Tricare plan and in May I go on Medicare so I increased coverage on my son and wife yet the premium went down.

It's all status quo for me ... staying on the same crappy plan because there ain't nuttin any better for less than the $1,000 a month I am paying for a major medical plan with a $5,900 deductible.  Oh, glorious days!

Dennis, all set. 

After seeing our premiums more than increase almost 2.5x once the individual mandate was enforced in 2014 our premium DECREASED almost 10% for this year because the individual mandate penalty has been changed to $0 for 2019.  

The vast majority of the people on the exchange are the self employed and those that qualify for the subsidies.  Now that there is competition (ie-people can legally opt for a plan with less coverage the prices have come down since there is COMPETITION.  The sad thing is there are no long term plans that offer the comprehensive coverage that one needs.

I'm surprised no one mentioned that a federal judge in Texas just ruled the other day that the (UN) Affordable Care Act is UNconstitutional now that the tax penalty has been changed to $0 from the individual mandate.
