Here comes trouble... Obama did not lie. [View all]

I found out today that I can keep my old health insurance if I want to. High deductible, no drug coverage, no subsidy etc.

The 2014 plan that I like costs 30% more but has much better bennies, lower deductible and qualifies for a subsidy. Net cost of the new plan will be about 1/2 the cost of the old plan.
