Uh-oh. Looks like someone misspelled "3000% rate decrease:"
"Millions who buy health insurance brace for double-digit increases"
The article says that this most directly hits those of us who don't qualify for subsidies, but that's not really true: we end up paying it twice.
How's that, you ask?
Well, if we make enough not to qualify for a subsidy, then we're paying taxes, and thus subsidizing those who do qualify. Their rates are doubling, too - they just don't feel the pinch quite as bad.
Thanks to thee and me, of course.
