The article does not list the people's ages. But we can be confident that they are not 80.
They are on an ACA plan, whereas an 80-year-old would be on medicare. They are also photographed in the article and.... obviously are not 80.
What does the medical expenses of 80-year-olds have to do with the situation described in the article?

- johnwheeler 10mo agoThe government subsidizes a portion of ACA payments depending on income in America. Without the subsidies, it's unaffordable for probably 95% of the population. That's why most people rely on employer-sponsored healthcare.
