1. Repeal
2. Allow insurance to be offered across state lines.
3. Encourage HSAs.
4. Let insurance companies offer any plan consumers want.
5. Move on to tax reform.

You are completely missing the point. It’s not about the price of health insurance. It’s about the price of health care.
Let’s enforce anti-trust laws on the hospitals and pharma companies. Once that happens the cost of getting treatment will drop to the point you can pay out of pocket, without the need for “insurance”.

Anti-trust vs. hospitals and Rx?? Forcing lower costs\freeloaders, long\$ approval process, patent theft... How ‘bout getting govt out of the way 1st. before we go lynching.
Getting away from 3rd party pay will lower costs.
Untying insurance from 3rd party (employer) will lower costs.
Opening markets across State lines will lower cost (unless it’s currently ILLEGAL by Congress, shouldn’t it already be available??).
Maybe some tort reform\loser pays would help too.
Pretty much UN-doing ANYTHING the govt has done, touch or even LOOKED at, will clean up some of these problems.
