Now, after Medicaid expansion, my deductible is the same, I have $20 copays, and my premium is $54/month.

It's a shitty plan, but it won't bankrupt me if something happens. I don't make a lot of money (any right now, back in school for 4 more months) so I qualify.

I'd gladly trade the "freedom" of getting gouged by an insurance company for slightly higher taxes for everyone and full coverage. The free market is great in most cases, but not healthcare. Profit motives in healthcare do not lead to positive outcomes for the most needy.

What exactly is shitty about that plan? Is cheaper and with lower deductibles than my employer's plan. Does your coverage suck or something?

My SO pays $11 per month for copays and a $1300 deductible, but she works for a hospital network.
