The GOP's Critique Of Obamacare: "We Are All In This Alone"

Another view of "ripping off young adults"

***

How Obamacare is ripping off young adults. "Obamacare is still struggling to sign up young people. In order to offset the high cost of the older, and probably less healthy people who are joining Obamacare plans, the White House must coerce a sufficient number of thirty-somethings to also join. Problem is, the health plans are too pricey to make economic sense for many young adults....The final number of young enrollees is well below the required cohort. Premiums will rise next year as a result of the adverse selection of older, and probably less healthy consumers. Why are young adults staying away? In one word, economics." Scott Gottlieb in Forbes.
