Bronze plans are rising in price slightly, but still much less than the health insurance rises we saw in the bad old says. Silver plan prices are falling with some significant outliers.

At a 60-40 payout rate this plan should have basically no change in rates.

It's unfortunate that virtually every Republican politician in the country won't be held accountable for brazenly and outrageously lying out their asses about Obamacare.

Despite all evidence,  there are tens of millions of Republican voters who still think Obamacare is bad for America Sad

There is a hell of a lot of variation here, even within states. 

NYT has a map.

So essentially they get a free ride while the rest of us get increases and can't keep our plan. We have begun rapid descent into third worldism. Congress must stop Obama from socializing medicine completely

Yes, nothing says "third world country" like variance in health insurance plans.

Actually, the old American healthcare system was much more comparable to the third world than to the first world, where healthcare is a right.

Maybe they're converging to a similar price range? Is there a color-coded map like that comparing average plan prices across all counties/states?

It looks more like the plans are stabilizing. The increases appear to be counties had really low rates last year moving to the state average whilec decreases are high rate counties moving down to average.  Every county in Georgia for example seems to be around 300 for 2015 after ranging 250-350 2014.

In Ohio, it seems almost like the opposite, as high prices in Southeast climb even higher, while other parts of the state have either a more modest increase or a decrease.
