Certainly is. I don't have confidence that the fix that has been put in place will work as well as it is supposed to but I would at least allow it to play out because what is in place now only really serves the insurance companies well.

But won't the new rules make it even better for them? I'm sure it's not just people that have bad health that don't have insurance, I'm sure they will rake in many people who have been using that money to get by on other things instead.

Right, the insurance companies are going to collect on those subsidies provided for those low income families. Though that is only for those on the "exchange" who don't have an option of employment based insurance.

I wonder if Peachcare for Kids will end if this gets up and running.
