He may succeed in destroying private health insurance as we know it.

But he will probably not be able to totally destroy the free market.

And as long as the free market exists, new markets can be created to replace what we once knew as “private health insurance.”

I know this might sound too optimistic. But it’s true.

There are many doctors who are switching over to a cash-only payment system, which cuts the insurance companies out of most day-to-day health care. This is the way it used to be and was a primary reason why we had good health care at low cost. Insurance should be for the “big stuff” (catastrophic).

This will work until the government requires that doctors take health insurance or they won’t be able to practice medicine.

I still think everyone should have no exemptions ,waivers,subsidization, or delay from Obamacare.

Then reform it- take away the insurance mandates for starters.Then remove mandating coverage for pre-existing conditions. Then decouple it from the IRS(and your employer-via tax credits). And go from there.
