[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 1213756, member: 24302"] The problem with Obamacare is that it requires companies to provide insurance that gives at least 60% coverage. And companies like FedEx are taking full advantage. FedEx can point to it's 70% coverage and say it's better than the minimum Federal requirement. And as long as one works for a company with minimum required coverage, one can't get a subsidy to reduce the cost of buying on the exchange. The Obama administration could have required better coverage but didn't. Lots of blame to go around. And it won't cause many to go without care because in 2016 the penalty is $695 or 2.5% of gross income, whichever is higher. If you gross $45k that's $1125 with a maximum penalty per family of a little over $2000. You might as well have the insurance. And buying on the exchange will cost you even more than what FedEx is charging. The only people benefitting from Obamacare are the very poor who'll get subsidized to have insurance they couldn't afford before. [/QUOTE]
