That's the whole purpose of my second job, to pay my insurance premiums, really really sad state for our country. But hey, Trump is going to fix it he said better, cheaper healthcare. His followers say he's doing everything he said he would.

There is no freedom

I’ll also add that I am self-employed and have an ACA policy purchased from the federal exchange. It is pricey but I am glad to have it. Those of us over 50 are all ambulating sets of preconditions - and In the pre ACA world underwriters would be excluding many of those things if they are able.

If ACA goes away, I’ll have to be an employee somewhere, simply to get insurance.

I lost my insurance when I was involuntarily retired, and now depend on Obamacare, and if that goes away, I don't know what I'll do.

Yes !!!!! In my past lives our company did health care work in the USA, Canada, and Australia. Nobody from Canada and Australia was pining for healthcare USA style. The Canadians were supportive of the provincial health systems - and we sold software into both Ontario and Alberta provinces.

Their answer ? Well, start your own insurance company... in actuality if you had the dedication to pay your monthly premium into a savings account you would not need insurance...

I don't and so I have to buy insurance...

Hmmmm.... so true...sad.
