Where do you live?

I live in California and I have Kaiser, which is large and well known in California. Before Obamacare I was paying $1200 a month. Obamacare reduced that to something like $117 a month, and at point my wife's company agreed to pay it.

I believe that how well Obamacare does depends on the local state government. Some states got behind Obamacare and worked to make it effective, other states not so much. I live in California where we have a large population, but other states only have one or two providers.

I honestly believe that we need to get the federal government more involved here and put caps on costs.
