I would guess you are making substantially more than $50k/year if that is what your premiums would be after subsidies. $1690/month though is what health coverage costs. If you don't agree with it being government funded, you have to accept that $1690 (tax deductible) per month is part of your budget, don't you? That has nothing to do with Obamacare, unless you'd prefer to be able to pay a couple hundred a month for coverage that doesn't kick in until after you've paid $50k and just hope nothing goes wrong with anyone.
