Wait, so the goal of the ACA is to get young, 'healthy' people to buy insurance to subsidize the rest of us as we get older and less healthy. Geeks who launch startups pretty regularly end up without any income for a while, and as has been stated in other threads many times, this means you end up on Medicaid. Isn't this counterproductive? Wouldn't the ACA be better off if they get healthcare coverage but don't launch startups?

(wait, what's that, you also need to pay rent? and student loans? and healthcare costs? but but but why aren't you ~-= innovating =-~???)
