Personal anecdote time!

I registered a woman to vote last night who told me she'd just recently signed up, with a premium of just $62 a month.

Does 62$/month is good? I don't know, I have socialist healthcare here.

That's good, though it depends on what she's getting. Bronze plans aren't very good (i.e., they don't cover much and have high deductibles), but they're cheap (estimate $100-200 before subsidy).

I guarantee, though, it'll be a far better plan than what she'd have gotten for $62 previously.

The GOP's "Repeal and Replace," last I heard, still doesn't protect people with pre-existing conditions. Simply put, that's never going to fly. Everyone has one pre-existing condition or another, and refusing payment or denying coverage via pre-existing conditions was one of the key mechanisms for abuse by Big Insurance in the old system.
