Even this non-insurance dude can figure it out. Insurance is meant to have a lot of low risk people pay in, so that payouts can occur when they need to happen. This will create craziness in the insurance markets if they actually remove the people who don't send a medical claim.

Just a heads up, Democrat Candidates: There İs not a single MAHA voter that will vote for you if you are:
1. Bashing Kennedy 2. Forcing vaccine mandates 3. Doing nothing about pesticides in our food It's a stretch-I am not saying MAHA will vote Dem, and am not speaking for all just from what am seeing...but MAHA definitely won't vote Dem if you are doing the above three things.
Want our votes? Collaborate with Kennedy. Let kids go to school and summer camp unvaccinated if their parents choose ( my body, my choice, right?). Do something about any one of the 86 pesticides that have been banned in other countries. And some MAHA voters might consider..

My gosh. Fetterman pretended to be sick to avoid meeting three paralyzed veterans from rural PA…and then went to do a Fox interview on Israel. He agreed to meet a lawmaker who drove from PA to talk about homeless and working people…and then bailed & met pro-Israel Bruce Pearl.
One morning in June, three paralyzed military veterans in wheelchairs from rural Pennsylvania arrived at the office of Sen. John Fetterman for a long-awaited meeting to discuss legislation that would improve their care.
Fetterman's staff greeted them with bad news: The Pennsylvania Democrat had to cancel. He'd told his staff he may have eaten something bad and wasn't feeling well, according to people familiar with the matter.
Less than an hour after his staffers met with the veterans in his place, Fetterman walked into his office, showing no signs of illness. He had an appointment he didn't want to miss, he told staff: an interview on Fox News to discuss Israel and the war in Iran."He was available. He just chose not to meet with us," Williams said.
Even when Fetterman does agree to meetings, he often cancels, according to former staffers.
Also last April, Fetterman agreed to take a meeting with another state lawmaker, Liz Hanbidge, who drove down from Pennsylvania to introduce herself, and to discuss programs that help the homeless and working poor in her county. But when Hanbidge arrived, according to staffers who were present, Fetterman claimed he hadn't agreed to the meeting. The aides spent more than an hour pleading with him to talk to her; staffers eventually met with Hanbidge in his place.
Fetterman did take another meeting that day-with Bruce Pearl, the former college basketball coach and Israel advocate. The pair discussed legislation that would affect college sports, and Pearl thanked Fetterman for his stance on Israel, Pearl said in an interview.
