> Maybe there are millions in America that only keep their jobs for the health benefits rather than starting a 1-2 person business. I'm not 100% sure about upcoming changes, seems similar from what I can see, but ACA gives an option for this. No job = very low income = you'll qualify for hugely reduced premiums

No job = very low income = you'll qualify for hugely reduced premiums The premiums are not reduced, at least where I live. What happens is I can deduct those premiums from the taxes paid. But wait, if I have no/little income, I don't pay taxes. And so I get no subsidy. Is that what you're talking about? Woo hoo!

    I'm sure it does. Where I live that's not the case. In fact, I've spent well over $100,000 on insurance premiums over the past 12 years -- just for me.
