Also the idea of insurance itself isn't the problem. It's how do we get affordable healthcare?

 

I actually do have a HSA which is something that the Bush administration pushed.  However, because of the Obamacare rules I have to purchase insurance for things that I'll never need and/or never use.

 

Rather than MANDATE that employers provide health insurance, perhaps relax the rules and give them the OPTION to set up HSA's and a means to get catastrophic coverage not limited to companies within a certain state (ie., be able to sell policies across state lines)?  That alone would be a better repeal-and-replace policy to Obamacare.
