It's the disconnect I think many miss. You have to have a way to make up for the cost to insurance companies for the provisions that most like. As noted before, the public option would have been a better solution, but people opposed that as well. There is a disconnect.
Is it right to force American citizens to purchase a product because the government says you must, or be fined or possibly serve jail time?
States have laws that require you to buy auto insurance, if you choose to drive your car.
The health insurance you have to buy because you breath and you have no choice in that matter.
I think they have that mandate in Mass. (which it's failing) but maybe they can do that because it's a state mandate.
