I agree with that, which is why some states have gone to high-risk pools.
I don’t actually have a problem with individuals who risked it and got caught having to essentially bankrupt themselves before they are eligible for Medicaid.
But most of the GOP presidential candidates are for that admittedly problematic halfway solution of keeping the mandate for pre-existing conditions being covered, while dropping the mandate that people purchase insurance.
“Most” of the GOP presidential candidates are crappy RINO wimpy liberal loser morons like they usually are. No one cares what they’re for.
Cruz is the one conservative in the race. He is for repealing Obamacare and implementing some simple deregulation to let the free market reign. I have never heard Cruz say he’s for any “mandates.”
