None.
Which is America's end game: to end that apparent scam.
This is why I actually had hope for the original draft of Obamacare: he straight up cloned the Netherlands system where insurance companies must insure x% of various classifications of sick people (cancer, AIDS, asthma, heart disease, overweight, etc), where x% approximates the national average...
... and they must spend ridiculous high levels of what they make on actual health care, AND the prices of health care are nationalized.
In the end, they fight over sick people (have a rare sickness? insurance companies will give you a discount to get you, instead of trying to figure out how to lifetime ban you from insurance instead). And what happens if an insurance company can't get enough people to meet the strict guidelines? They're banned from selling insurance in the Netherlands until they do.
This is essentially the original Obamacare, filtered through the American way of doing shit. What we got instead? Half of that, and maybe not even the good half.
We got fucked.
