    It was like 23 not too long ago.

    Besides, that would be assuming you had parents who ever had you on their insurance and you didn't end up on life support at 19 sans insurance and woke up with millions in medical bills. Yay living.

    It was actually lower at first with the Affordable Care Act, let's call it by the correct name folks! It was bumped up to 26 not very long ago.

    It was the ACA that moved it from 23 to 26, but you have to meet a certain criteria to stay on your parents insurance, like being a student. The ACA may have also eased the restrictions too.

    ACA it is. But I was pretty sure that the age 26 was in the 2010 version?

    *could be wrong* :dunno:

    Not everything went into effect at the same time. It was a huge bill with many parts that had a staggered release.

    I refer to it as ObamaCare as most people have forgotten the real name and it is an oxymoron of a name anyway.

    It was, but the ACA didn't actually go into effect until 2014. Some insurance companies started letting people stay on until 26 around 2010 but after 2014 it was legally required.

    Yeah, but see, there were literally people talking about how they had their insurance plans through the ACA and fuck obamacare people, despite those being the same thing, during the last election cycle. I think it's just bad form to call it by the wrong name.

    Anyway, here's a cat! I dislike talking anything remotely related to politics on the daily thread and now I feel dirty.
