We dont know the details yet. It could be that older people are subsidized by the government. The real issue is that many people cant get insurance at all, like my SO. I would be willing to buy her insurance at the going rate, but it cannot be had. If it costs you an extra $100 per month so she can get insurance so be it. I have no sympathy because I am probably paying way more in taxes than you to support things that do not benefit me directly. That's the way it goes in a democratic society.
