Maybe if you are still paying for insurance yourself, there should be a better incentive for your employer to be offering it, instead.
When more people are working, and when offering excellent benefits returns to being a way to attract the best employees, then you won't have to be so dependent on the government to safeguard your health.
There are huge corporations that rationalize and figure out schemes for how not providing benefits is cheaper for them, putting the employee on their own to spend their own salary dollars. And then, as their self-insurance costs rise, their salaries never manage to increase at the same pace. It is up to the employee to negotiate that raise, and sadly most do not.

lol, I have insurance through work so don't you be silly. It costs so much and covers so little that I would be better off canceling it and letting you pay for my major health issues. Like Icky if I get in a bad situation I can always file bankruptcy. I have some family through marriage that has probably accumulated a total of a million dollars in health bills, never paid, except by your generous tax payments, lmfao. He thanks you, though. He claims while Icky doesn't pay taxes you sure do.

The dems will be happy with Trump's new found reason.... his supporters won't be. Holy sheet, not at all.

As for you cancelling your insurance, I think that would be a bad move. I am sure you are unadoptable by me, and much, much past the age limit for dependents who are covered. Set up a GoFundMe instead, and see what happens? I have been motivated to help that way, a few times.
Bankruptcy has its undesirable drawbacks, despite the people who manage to overcome those. I wouldn't recommend it as a first line of defense, rather, just the opposite.
If you think you aren't getting the bang for your buck through your employer's plan, just be glad you aren't part of the AZ government exchange. The real problem that needs a big shake up is the cost of hospital care. The billing is so complicated and subjective there are people who make a living negotiating patient bills. Trying to clear that debt is right up there with disputing your R. E. tax bill or correcting a DMV error.
Did you read the Podesta emails from Wikileaks discussing the Clinton Foundation bargaining with the pharmaceutical companies, not to reduce USA drug costs so that cheaper drug prices would exist elsewhere?
That would seem to be the prevailing attitude for many industries these days. USA holds the bag open and encourages the taking without requiring any replenishing of the well. *
*(Did a binge watching of The Walking Dead marathon, so I kind of borrowed from the episode, "The Well". Must give credit where credit is due!)

I hope you aren't serious and you really aren't injured! That is ghastly!
@VK4. Trump's supporters won't hold him to a strict literalness, if he delivers a change they can feel. If he takes too long to throw them a bone, then the grumbling will begin. I think Trump knows that and will by then, have a satisfactory offering, if not an exact one.
