Hows Arkansas Obamacare working out?

I think I may have helped my super-red midwestern mom-in-law see the light...I hope!
I dont know what city they are in or their income but im pretty sure they are broke and she is really sick due to a botched gastric bypass from years ago....

she told my hubby she wasnt getting Obamacare cause it will cost them 5800 a year....hubby said he knows they just heard that somewhere and didnt actually check into it.....so going with a little trick I read here last week...I told him to dare her to prove him wrong by going and checking it out....she said she would!

so I hope its going well in arkansas...I hope shes pleasently surprised!

Down to $100 with better terms. Can't speak for any others.
