183. The subsidies would be unaffected. The PO would be, what? 5-10% cheaper?

States that opted out would still have an insurance exchange. The subsidies for low income folks would remain.

It's not like being in an opt-out state (which I think would be zero states anyway) would be a death sentence.

We are not talking about opting out of the entire bill, only talking about some people maybe being unable to get a modestly better plan that most people wouldn't be able to get anyway.

The strongest House bill still has only 10 million in the PO by 2019.
