The main purpose of the individual mandate was to have these younger, relatively healthy consumers subsidize the costs of older, sicker and more expensive insurance enrollees.

“Due to the ACA's sweeping market reforms, rates for low-premium plans have increased exponentially between 2013 and 2014. In fact, on average, a healthy 30 year old male nonsmoker will see his lowest cost insurance option increase 260 percent,” reads AAF's report.

A healthy 30-year-old would see his health insurance costs rise in all 50 states and the District of Columbia.

So my question to all those who support this so-called "reform", is how is it ethical to screw over one generation in favor of another? Especially when the generation being screwed over has already been screwed by
- obscene housing costs
- exponentially increasing college costs
- extremely high joblessness after earning degrees
and the generation being subsidized has already benefited from
- the greatest appreciation in stocks and housing in U.S. history
- the best job markets
- pensions and social security

I fail to see the ethics in forcing 20-somethings to subsidize the very 60-somethings keeping them out of jobs and houses.

If the individual mandate is necessary, all insurance policies should be grouped by 5-year age brackets, and no age bracket should be allowed to take from another age bracket. This is only ethical. And if this were applied, the cost of health insurance for the 20-somethings and early 30-somethings would have gone done, not up, after the individual mandate.

APOCALYPSEFUCK is Comptroller says

Next Obumfuck will pass as executive order that all the Millennialoids will have to buy a house and pay the boomtards at least 10x what they paid and fucking blow them at the closing and Michelle Obama will show up at every closing shouting Allah Akubar and holding a hand-held Gatling gun to the victimized buyer's head until he swallows the whole load.

My favorite masturbation porno is what you just described.

Sorry, I don't trust or believe the source.

Shows exactly how rumors rile up those easily swayed.

As a 32 year old, I've already shipped off over 50k to these mega corps black hole of rentier death. That needs to stop. Instead, the dems want to assure that over the next 40 years, that I ship off another half a million in lost wages to these wholly unnecessary assholes.

Get fucked you dumb motherfuckers

As a 32 year old, you don't know anything yet, and don't know it. Life has a way of showing you.

These programs, and private insurance are always "subsidizing the sick or old" on the backs of the young and healthy. That's how they work and why they work, right?

They only work when there are more people in the working ages than there are in retirement age, and the people in the working ages are being paid enough at least as much, in real terms, as the retired people used to be paid.

The aging population and lower birthrates in America and Japan are invalidating this model. The problem with the model of one generation pays for the prior generation (or two priors generations) is that it relies on every increasing population, which is not sustainable.

Yes, we should have social safety nets, but they should be ran in a sustainable manner. Any execution that relies on a particular resources, such as human capital, increasing indefinitely is doomed to fail, and when it does fail, it will do so at the point of maximum cost. If a system is going to fail, it's better for it to fail quickly when the costs of replacing it are smallest.

I know one thing is for certain, I'm getting absolutely RAPED on how much I (am now forced to pay) for private health insurance.

And sorry, your prying for an emotional guilt trip won't work on me. I'm too smart for that. But go right on ahead wishing something bad to happen to me, to prove me otherwise. Ill fight to the grave to make sure I never use any of the horseshit you's allow to be passed off as "healthcare".

I agree with you that a lot of western - especially US - healthcare is fucked up. Most of the blame for this falls on the massive pharmaceutical industry. The food industry comes in a close second. But to write off all US healthcare as horseshit betrays your claim of being smart. It's reactionary and wrong. When I was your age I never went to the doctor but still had insurance with a 5000k deductible. Emergency care was not limited by the deductible, which was something I needed on occasion.
