You can cite the fact that this increase was anticipated, and suggest it's a one year thing. But if that rate of increase or anything close to it should become an annual thing... well, you do the compounding.

Look, you can actually do the research, but there's pretty clear consensus that the cost curve has been bent and ACA has something to do with that. Here, we had the lowest increase in premium this year of any time in memory. If you are in the ACA individual market place, you probably have options you didn't have before: the individual market place was pretty thin before ACA. Anyone here have any experience with it, other than in a COBRA context?
Note also, first reaction to the failed Republican bill: Republican states looking to opt in to Medicare expansion. Something's working...
But it's pointless talking to you, of course. TM, stop me.
