No because of the repeal of essential health benefits from the federal level

No child born with or that contracts a disease should be excluded from being covered. You are punishing them for being born!
I'm not saying we shouldn't help sick children... I believe the complete opposite. But doing it in the most inefficient and threatening way possible seems stupid to me.

I mean sure there is something to be said for sticking to your guns. I just don't see how we get a stable plan with that untouched (unless you bulk up the mandate, which I do NOT want).

Insurance is the spreading of cost around all of those covered.

One could say, by your logic, that we just kill off the elderly because the older you get the more you use insurance.

quote:It truly won't. They'll just not get any insurance, skip the premium AND the penalty and still get roughly the same care they would if they paid.
No, a 30% penalty will not deter anyone from entering after a costly diagnosis, or encourage them to insure themselves before one.

But now, they are going to all of a sudden be able to do the same for some potential medical condition in the future?

let's set that bar a little higher and demand more from our fellow citizens.

The government should just pull out of the health insurance business entirely.
I agree with that.

Well naturally. That is, of course, my desire - hence why I said "if we legislate".
