There's an old retailer's trick where one marks up the merchandise 75% (or more!), then announces a 50% off sale. It's tried and true, and coming to an ObamaPlan for you. From our friend Holly R:
"Obamacare premiums are going down for first time"
Oh frabjous day!
That's right, standard-bearer Silver level plans are set to go down a bit when Open Enrollment v6.0 takes off next month.
By about 1.5%. Which is nice, but then comes the not-so-fine print:
"[T]he decline comes after a 37% spike for this year's benchmark silver plan."
Which means that average $6 per month savings pales in comparison to the $1,200+ increase they ate last year, and will continue to pay even now.
Such a deal!
