Unintended Consequence of the Affordable Care Act.
#8
RE: Unintended Consequence of the Affordable Care Act.
The whole purpose is to provide a pool to help everyone. The larger the pool, the cheaper the services will be on average. You are looking for the individual, but need to look at as a whole. Overtime, the price of the products will go down for everyone as it spreads the price over the group and time.

Social Security, Prescription Drug Program (which is worse than ACA), and Medicare/Medicaid are similar programs.

The 80/20 limiting factor is to prevent the limiting of services for profit.

The tax laws have been in a place for a while. Many companies write off their loses.
