[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I already buy outside the exchange, and the premium still went up 50%.  This is a fallacy.

I hate to say this but shouldn't the private premiums go down now that the health insurers aren't forced to cover every tom, dick, and jane with expensive pre-existing conditions or who have been abstaining from getting needed medical attention until now?[/quote]
I had private insurance prior to ACA. Premiums went up at least 20% every year, while coverage went down.   Oh, and I have a pre-existing condition and am self employed.   The possibility of a repeal of ACA will impact my ability to be self employed.

And to the PP who stated that the conservatives like the two parts of ACA - preexisting condition and adult children being able to stay on parents' policy till 26 - part of the reason why costs went up is exactly what PP stated... more sick people are allowed to be covered, ie, pre existing conditions, and that's partly why costs are going up.  So, if they keep this part of the ACA, then I don't see how prices will go down much.[/quote]
