But it could be even worse
I just took a survey a few days ago where they were looking at which options people would take when the new health insurance laws take effect and people will start looking at health insurance plans from the "pool". They listed all the proposed options from all the major insurance companies and the expected costs, etc. The shocking thing is that the plans were priced at $2,200 to $4,000+ PER MONTH for a family of TWO. And the coverage, even with the best offered plan, would be worse than what I currently have.
My current plan costs me over $1,600 per month and my employer only pays $150 per month toward it. That's over 30% of my income right now!
It's just hard to image being able to afford medical insurance my longer at these rates.
