If you don't understand why...........ask someone else.

Subsidy formula makes some policies costlier for the young - Philly.com

Based on an average of policies across the country, the premium for the cheapest bronze plan turns out to be $240 a month for Emily and $720 for Bob.

To arrive at their monthly premium, you have to subtract the benchmark premium - defined as the second-lowest-cost silver plan - from the premium cap, which is the amount of subsidy given to purchase the benchmark plan based on an individual's income, regardless of what plan is actually purchased.

The benchmark premium for Emily is $290; for Bob, $870. That makes the premium cap (9.5 percent of their income) $270. So Emily receives a $20-a-month subsidy while Bob gets $600 a month. That means that, for the same policy, young Emily will pay $220 monthly premiums, while older Bob pays $120.
 
What you're saying is this is inequality. I hate inequality. I want the same paycheck as txinsurance.
 
keep on a running up that post count for me

5,000 posts gets you 5,000 virgins. After you're dead from exhaustion, 5,000 demons will go to work.

Seriously, I'm noticing that the laziest of news organizations are taking last year's stories, making subtle changes and publishing them like it's something new they just uncovered. Last Fall, it was 30 year old William paying more than his 62 year old Dad, due to the Subsidy Formula, lol.

Don't tempt him Peeler might just take that deal! I would feel sorry for the 5000 demons though. They may become bloated and explode.
