So how do you fully socialize a program and balance supply and demand?
Don’t get me wrong, as someone who saw first hand the shit show of the pre ACA, something had to be done.
I was laid off right before the ACA took affect and couldn’t get insurance at any price because of a non life threatening, no treatment needed then or in the future preexisting condition. I was healthy as a horse and had just run my first two half marathons.
COBRA wasn’t an option because the company I was laid off from went out of business. I had a well paying contract job and I could have afforded to pay out of pocket premiums.
I ended up marrying my now wife six months earlier than we had plan to get on her insurance (her idea).
But the challenge is end of life care and you will always have to make cost/benefit trade offs.
