Right. Only part of ObamaCare involved government-funded health care. The individual mandate required Americans to pay a penalty if they didn't buy medical coverage from private insurers.

Could people even buy health insurance in 1789?

I’m thinking not but I actually don’t know if there was anything to the contrary in the USA at the time.

I think our reasonable private system was “fundamentally changed”. My premiums used to be about $45 a week back in 2001. Been so long since I had insurance, I only remember the old days.
