> now enslaved into paying for obamacare and SS for older people. Seems fair. My girfriend who makes a less than 3k/month pays $700 for obamacare and ~$500 for student debt A private insurance company is charging $700/month for her plan, not the federal (or state) government. The money goes to the company, not the government, but yes, young, relatively healthy people paying for insurance are basically subsidizing the health care for older, less healthy people with insurance from the same company. That's how all insurance works. I would think $3k/month would be low enough income to qualify for federal subsidies. I have employer-provided healthcare so I don't know too many of the details. The ACA has slowed how quickly health costs increase but they do still increase every year and are "spiky" (some costs for some people can go up by a lot). Sounds like you're in favor of the more lefty, socialist solution of single-payer health care, like all the other developed nations. Me too.
