Theoretically the insurance rates won't rise because the healthy young people who aren't buying insurance now will be forced to do so legally. With a lower risk pool, the insurer would hopefully be able to keep rates stable.
- roboneal 17y agoHow many healthy uninsured young people do you really think there is? I hear 36 million total uninsured getting thrown around. Let's say 15% are healthy, young, & gainfully employed (able to afford premiums), but until now - health insurance "scofflaws". Do you really think these 5.4M people offset uncapped, unrestricted benefits of the other 300+ Million people?
