You must not be telling us something.

Remember that Obamacare gave us age-banded health premiums. As the insured's age rises, premiums rise. Pricing is also impacted by region, and states can have multiple regions. In Cali, regions in the north are more expensive than the south. The news reports typically show / compare premiums for single 25 year olds and 40 year olds. If they printed the average premiums for 60 year olds, most people would probably faint after reading them.
