Maybe you really believe this but it is absolutely not true. The lowest cost plan available for ONE is 571.26 a month (bronze plan) or $6855.12 a year. Over twice the $3000 a month. Go to einsurance.com and do a search. Yes it use to cover it before OC, but not now. Average policy increase this year is 41% and it will get worse. Dig your head out of the sand and look at what is available.
