The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of ACA benchmark Silver plan premiums in Florida from 2014 to 2025 is about 6.9% per year.
The average ACA Silver plan premium has inflated at ~5.7% CAGR since 2014, significantly outpacing general inflation and employer health plan costs. This underscores why subsidies are critical: without them, affordability would erode quickly.
It was the Fed who slowed down inflation by jacking up rates.
As I mentioned Trump has taken specific measures to reduce egg and gas prices. So Presidential policies do matter, along with the monetary policies of the Fed.
I guess Trump could offer incentives to counties and builders to build affordable housing like townhomes with at least 1 car garages.
