As for preexisting conditions, requiring a new insurer to accept preexisting conditions is a de facto subsidy by those other insureds who do not have the conditions but are paying higher premiums to cover the costs associated with such. And to have the federal government cover the costs of insuring the preexisting conditions through a private insurer in the alternative would put the taxpayer on the hook for it, i.e. another subsidy.
I didn’t say new insurers should accept pre existing conditions, I said old insurers should be required to take back old customers as they were before. Otherwise you screw over people who had insurance before obamacare, and lost it because of obamacare. Anyone with any serious condition, whether it is cancer or diabetes will be left without a way to get health care, even though they were playing by the rules and buying insurance. It is a pure side effect of government intervention that derailed millions a year for the last few years. Not undoing the damage is worse than doing it in the first place.
