You can choose plans that adhere to the government standards. That is a lot different than you can choose your plan, period.

I'm still confused about why the government needed to create any sort of web site since they are just marketing private insurance plans (which meet the ACA standards) and these companies have been and continue to market their insurance plans on their own web sites. And hasn't anyone in the federal government heard about 'independent insurance agents'? I guess not since they had to dream up a new job title of 'navigator'.

I do support some of the policy goals of ACA, but it seems like almost any other implementation would have been better than the convoluted-rube-goldbergish mechanisms created by the ACA.
