Well, if you and or your employer are not paying premiums, and the overall spend is less (this is a well supported CBO finding), most of us will be better off.

- sokoloff 6y agoTotally agreed. Saying that most of us will be better off even though our taxes will go up is significantly more accurate.
- ddingus 6y agoWhat is a premium but a private tax?
- sokoloff 6y agoOne is an optional payment to a private company to purchase a specific service. The other is a compulsory payment to a government entity as a result of earning income.
- ddingus 6y agoLol, optional? The rest of the developed world would very strongly disagree. The penalty for not making that payment can be death, is likely financial ruin. For many people, that optional payment is enough to buy a home. Ask around about "optional" Then we can set that aside and recognize net, liquid income will go up for most everyone.
