Wait till the people who worked hard, sacrificed and saved in order to buy a home in a good neighborhood because of good schools find out they are being charged for doing so in the form of higher premiums.

That's right, families who live in the suburbs of Chicago are paying more than those near the Quad cities for the same health plans. Not because of health but because of where they live.

If Obama was a stable manager for a thoroughbred operation, the horses, the ones making money for the stable would go hungry while the feral cats, mice and rats got fat. All would share the vet's attention and treatment with the hungry horses paying for the whole bill.

How long would that last?

Insurers set the premiums, not the ACA. There's nothing new about the rate differences, other than the fact that they are now visible due to the "marketplace" that was set up.

Again, when you have insurance oompanies in the healthcare construct, you have to expect that they will act to make as much money as possible.

The ACA didn't create the problem, only exposed it.
