I pay taxes, so at least in the case where the receipts from people earning over $200K or payments from those with expensive health plans (which doesn't kick in until something like 2018) fail to cover the expense of the subsidies I most definitely will be paying for them. I don't expect Obama to announce that the insurance plan is out of money, so no more subsidies.

The insurance premiums I pay today go into an insurance pool. The other employees also pay their own money into the insurance pool. That pool pays for each person's medical expenses plus insurance plan expenses. So no, I am not paying for someone else's premiums. They pay the 'buy in cost' to the insurance plan
