So if the exchanges do not “enroll enough young, healthy people, insurers will have to raise everyone’s premiums,”

So even liberals understand that for this to work, young people who don't have jobs need to spend money they don't have for health insurance they don't need so that our society can insure the uninsurable (pre-existing conditions).

Because nobody in the private sector ever figured out how to insure people with pre-existing conditions and make money. If that were possible, somebody would have done it and cornered the health insurance market.

It had been figured out with group policies through an employer.
