“What are your approximate total household liquid assets?

What's your household net worth?

Why should ACA Covid-era enhanced subsidies be available regardless of family wealth?”

It’s the age old story.

Person 1 works hard and saves. Sacrifices. Takes career, business and investing risks. Pays a lot of taxes along the way. And eventually builds a nice nest egg.

Person 2 does none of these, but does party hard. Pays little tax. Zero or negative net worth.

Person 1 is expected to pay 100x as much for healthcare, effectively subsidizing person 2.

Is that fair? Not sure. I go back and forth on it.

I would expect a conservative to be on the side of person 1, but what do I know?
