Then why did you cite an article that says otherwise? What part of math and averages do you not understand? 'Some' in this case are the young and healthy. Fun watching you squirm though.
So your assessment is that community rating is a scam by which insurance companies merely raise rates independent of risks. That is make more money regardless of the cost to others, and I don't think that's a goal of regulation.
No it's not a scam. It's an Obamacare regulation that requires insurance companies to avgerage out the rates of a given policy across a given risk pool. There is only one possible outcome of that which the graph in YOUR article reflects; the premium rates for the young and healthy go up while the premium rates of the sick and elderly go down. Seriously PMZ, there is plenty that can be legitimately debated about on Obamacare, but this isn't one of those things. It's not political. It's math. I still don't get why you cited the article you cited since it quite clearly explains exactly this and what I've been telling you for two pages now and you've been denying.
Just what I said. Some go up. Some go down. Balance. That's always true of insurance. There are winners and losers.
