Fantastic post (again) by Sally Kohn on the Fox site
cracks me up how heads explode over there under anything she writes
I signed up. I saved. And so will millions of Americans.
. I logged onto the New York State health insurance exchange website. Yeah, I had a few false starts the website was down a lot early on either because of service glitches or overwhelming traffic
But finally, I was able to log-in and complete my registration and check out all my options for insurance.
There were literally 50 plans that were better than my current insurance
Within a week, I had settled on a gold plan offered by Empire Blue Cross Blue Shield
This option will cost my family $931 per month $408 per year less than my previous crappy plan and a $5,000 savings in deductibles. A big win for me and my family financially and in terms of whats covered.
Plus in the past, I spent several days looking for and comparing insurance options. Under ObamaCare, even with the slow and sticky website, I spent a total of four hours to save over $5,400. That kind of return on investment would make Warren Buffett drool.
Ideologues may not like ObamaCare, but my wallet and my familys health sure do.
