in what world can the average person buy even a policy with a $10k copay for less than $700 a year. The second question is that how does someone cover a $10K copay on $1200 a year?

Sounded to me more like he was talking $3000, not $700.

Then there's HRPs to control costs.

Part of the problem is so many of the uninsurables have been kicked off their plans, how do you cover pre-existing conditions or underwrite them?

Bammy destroyed the system and now how do you fix it?

Nope, it's $2000 per year into an HSA of which at least one-third has to go to health-care insurance premium. People can contribute more to the HSA if they want. And if they have the money. So tell me where one can get any sort of heath insurance for $700 a year?

Then there's HRPs to control costs.

The idea that they'll control costs is fantasy, and unless the government is going to mandate that employers provide HRPs then they are even less helpful.
