...but it’s not true under this proposal.

How do you figure? What is it about this plan that will attract young and healthy individuals to buy insurance that the Obamacare plan did not?

You’re missing the point. When it comes to older people, it doesn’t matter if young people buy in or not because under this plan young people aren’t subsidizing older people like they had to do under Obamacare.

They were charged too much, which is why the penalty was needed. The penalty, which was designed to increase every year as I recall, was meant to force young people in, so the unjustifiably high premiums they would be paying would be available to subsidize older peoples’ policies.

You ask what about this plan will make them buy that Obamacare didn’t. They’re not getting screwed; Obamacare screwed them. So it’s a far better deal for them.
