longer are required by the ACA to purchase insurance. On top of that, many who do have insurance might as well not at all when it comes down to the deductibles, co-pays and max OOPs that come with low premiums. Sure those individuals may get a return on those premiums if they have a catastrophic health issue, but will they be able to survive financially if their ability to maintain their income is affected? For some, definitely not, while for many maybe not.

You know I won't be surprised if, next, tRump and the GOP mobsters go after health costs as a legitimate/eligible reason for bankruptcy.
