The problem there is that this bill was designed to collapse the insurance market and force us into single-payer in about a decade......not a couple of years.

This much collapse this fast is far beyond the scope of even those who wrote it and were hoping to destroy the current health insurance structure. I can’t see a point at which the various websites start signing up dramatically larger and increasing numbers of subscribers AND ALSO have a majority of those dramatically larger and increasing subscribers being young people paying $300-400 dollar premiums. The money isn’t there. The websites can’t successfully handle that traffic.

I simply can’t fathom what the insurance markets will look like a year from now after having been forced by law to accept thousands of new high-risk, high cost customers into the system without having had any appreciable increase in money flowing in. Emergency funding bills through Congress? Hell, I don’t know.

Yes, the process of collapsing the insurance market will take so much money out of the economy that we will reminisce about the good old days of the 2008 recession. No segment of our economy will remain untouched.
