Oh, you forgot the mandatory 5% fee, too.

If your employer was paying $3,000/mo for your insurance, it's going to be $3,150 for you.

Fuck whichever lobbyists made sure that was allowable.

It's not mandatory and its capped at 2%, not 5%, but, yes, there is a potential additional charge beyond just the full cost (what would be the employer + employee share, for a current employee) of coverage.
