Thankfully, the ACA made insurance mandatory for everyone. Not only do we have a garbage system, we're obliged to participate in it.

- vkou 3y ago1. You have always participated in it, regardless of whether or not you pay an insurer. 2. There are no penalties for not having insurance, that part of the ACA has been torpedoed. 3. The people who torpedoed it have no intentions of fixing a damn thing about this country's medical system.
- EvanAnderson 3y agoThis is sarcasm, right? The individual mandate was struck down. In my opinion, this was a brilliant strategic move by those opposed because it guarantees the eventual financial inviability of all of the ACA. Decreasing the size of the risk pool by allowing people to opt out will guarantee that it won't work long-term.
