Is anyone else caught between the rock and the hard place

Is anyone else caught between the rock and the hard place - as far as O-care, to pay or not to pay? sm

Posted:

I cant afford $48 a month for a plan, cant afford the $500 or so a month for deductibles, and sure the H cant afford the fine at the end of the year on taxes.

I have to call somewhere, talk to someone, and get some help. How does a normal working person afford this, or get out of it, or something?

I cant be the only one caught in this trap, am I? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?
