Someone stumbled across this spreadsheet on the ObamaCare website last night and it’s been zapping around Twitter ever since. Is this information … supposed to be public? I thought the whole point of forcing people to register before showing them the prices is that they didn’t want you to see how expensive the plans are until you’d already been lured with the promise of subsidies.

I’ll bet the Zerocare folks would love to patch that information hole, but it’s already too late. They can’t get the toothpaste back in the tube now.

Better cook up some more lies to explain it.

Step one: Compare prices to voter history. Are the premiums higher in Republican states?
Step two: Compare navigators to past democratic campaign contributions.

I downloaded and zipped it earlier.

In case it disappears, here is a link to mine: https://app.box.com/s/ndznoq5reu1amr4v4voe

I didn’t see anything listed about the deductible for each plan. Are we to assume the deductible is zero?

My experience with renters over the past 8 years is that they have trouble having enough money to pay the rent and the utilities. Now these vary people are going to have their hours cut and another $700-1000 dollar bill to pay every month.

Do Holder’s people get a special subsidy, because they are going to be incredibly pissed to discover they owe money to the IRS instead of getting a nice fat earned income welfare check.

I have to leave or I would compare the prices on your list to those listed in this article: http://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3082650/posts because Obamacare now has a low ball estimate showing when people surf the site (their cya response to complaints that you can’t see the costs until you sign up). By low ball estimate I mean that the estimates are too low, sometimes by 50 percent - it’s just window dressing. So I am wondering if you are getting the window dressing numbers or the real numbers because cost is dependent on age and an accurate table would have numerous costs for numerous age ranges per plan.

One of hubby’s coworkers has had his past three renters, all with good credit and good references, stop paying rent, saying they don’t have to pay. It took him 90 days to evict them.

Look for this and other similar scenarios to skyrocket.

Only Muslims, Amish and Native Americans are exempted, as far as I know.

For a family like ours, in Texas, the plans average about $800/month, no subsidy. For the gold plan, it is close to $1,000 per month.
And those premiums wouldn’t even reduce our taxable income like our current health insurance.

78,438 rows of data. That’s how long the ‘Individual Medical landscape’ Excel file is which contains policy rates. As for the ‘Navigator’ file, that’s 3,797 rows of data and contains all addresses and Email addresses of Navigators. IT’S SPAM TIME! LOL

If you copy and paste the plan name in Google, you can find the plan specifics.

example: I put Blue Cross Blue Shield Select 6350, a Multi-State Plan in Google and came up with this

Regarding the hiring of navigators, it seems as though that was done behind closed doors and not very public. I'm sure someone can conclude that political affiliation or ideology plays a role in what the typical navigator looks like. Probably like THIS:

"I am an Obamabot. I love Obama. Obama mmm mmm mmm. I am an Obamabot. I love Obama. Obama mmm mmm mmm. (Repeat)"

Interestingly, this woman was NOT enrolled in Obamacare at the time this photo was taken.

You apply to be a navigator I bet they will certainly check your party affiliation.

Then again, they hired ACORN and Planned Parenthood to do this stuff, they aren’t political at all, right?
