At least when the talking points are about the tax, the supreme court, and not the high costs of premiums I know I'm not even going to start winning any argument.
You say, There's no way in the world it could work ? You have to agree that if more healthy people are in the pool then it would work out. The Auto Insurance industry have made it well for themselves.
Give it a few more years, stop rooting and cheering for it to fail. Let's get more people to enroll instead of opting out, and it'll be a success. (Despite preexisting conditions there's room for it to work)
My initial thought was: could you please let us know where you get the kool-aid you are drinking, but on second thought I realized it has nothing to do with kool-aid. That would have been true had you tried to employ the slightest amount of logic to your arguments, yet you were skewed by the kool-aid.
However it seems obvious that there's is no attempt whatsoever on your behalf to use logic. Your arguments are 100% based on your feelings.
Do you know anything about risk management, actuarial science, or for that matter simple arithmetic (not even talking math)?
Did you ever read the law? (Side note - I would vote for any candidate that would push for a constitutional amendment to require lawmakers to pass a test on the contents of a bill before being allowed to vote on it, or alternatively limiting the length of bills to no longer than a reasonable number of words, number to be determined when I have some time to think this through).
What experience do you have either in the insurance business or the Healthcare business?
Your analogy to auto insurance is meaningless. No one is obligated to own a car and hence buy insurance. There's competition out there, there's individualized underwriting, and there is an assigned risk pool where high risk drivers can go and get insurance IF NO COMPANY WILL OTHERWISE ACCEPT THEM, where they will pay exorbitant rates. And there's no law assigning a mandated loss ratio on car insurance.
Do you see the differences? Please explain us the differences to show that you can objectively apply logic.
