Thought ACA premium plans have shot up in costs due to the lack of the mandate, so the markets are a shell of themselves without that and the subsidies. Plus I thought the whole idea of it being legally feasible was that it was treated as a tax with the individual mandate?

premiums increased even with the mandate, we saw it in 2016 and 2017

I was more so referring to the rate in growth, especially without the implied volume of healthier, younger people in the exchanges now. Also, considering the legal implications now since there's no tax penalty now. Is the ACA pretty much done now with the tax being 0?

ACA isn't done if there's no individual mandate.

There's multiple policy options at the state level; autoenrollment, back premium penalties, added subsidies, aligning open enrollment with tax filing season, requiring the submission of a special affidavit if an individual forgoes coverage, or an employer mandate. Also, there could be a state public option then a new state individual mandate. What many people objected to about the ACA mandate was the requirement that they give money to the despised private insurance companies

My mouth has been open the entire time. I honestly can't believe this guy! He's getting worser (I meant what I said).

When coli fam goes “worser” on purpose, you know it’s bad out here

Gotcha.

Ohio is trending very badly for coronavirus might sink Trump there these next 2 weeks.

Montana at-large and Senate races are jump balls. Trump won Montana by 20 points in 2016 and at the same time Bullock won the governor race by 4 points.

Random thought: if you're still an undecided voter at this point in time you're trying to find something between now and election Day for something to justify your vote for Trump. The fact you can't just shows how much of a terrible candidate and human Trump is.

Brehs,

I think he finally did something that’s made my brain explode. Releasing that segment on the ACA and giving two different answers on a replacement

Did you not read the Health Care Replacement Book that McCacenany put out there??

He said you’re next.

Fixed for accuracy...
