text: Gripe and moan, gripe and moan. My health insurance premium has gone up $208/year since 2010. Oh dear.
  
  Lots of folks have their anecdotes of premiums skyrocketing or tripling or whatever, but the data shows that for most Americans, and most Alaskans, the increases were modest. And the payoff is that some twenty million more people have health coverage. TWENTY MILLION.
  
  I won't sit here and claim that the ACA is perfect, or even ideal. There are absolutely fixes to be made. But it isn't the death knell that so many made it out to be. Jesus Christ, people, it's an improvement, even if an incremental one.
