Those who are below 133% and perhaps the red states which did not roll out their exchanges would nit get the assistance of the states which had exchanges. I am confused by this portion. Though I am insured under my retirement and Medicare I have lots of concerns for many friends in Texas when OOPS has refused to have an exchange. I am not sure how those falling in this crack should be fined.
