Trumpcare: Should people be allowed to have catastrophic coverage only?
You *can* get catastrophic coverage under Obamacare, but it's limited, and from what I have heard, discouraged.

Quote from link:
Slim coverage, fat deductibles
"Primarily reserved for people younger than 30, the Affordable Care Act's catastrophic plans cover three annual primary care visits and preventive services at no cost, including disease screenings and vaccinations. Beyond that, the patient pays all medical expenses out of pocket up to a steep deductible, generally $6,350 for individuals and $12,700 for families.
People older than 30 who shop for health insurance in the Obamacare exchanges are usually required to choose a more comprehensive plan but may buy a catastrophic plan under one of the law's many exemptions."
