The (unaffordable)HCA will likely cause more Bankruptcies than it prevents
One of the President’s and other liberals’ primary talking points for support of the (U)HCA is that the low-income uninsured NEED THE HCA so they have protection from catastrophic events that would force them into bankruptcy. The irony is the cancellation of millions of existing policies forces the currently insured business owners into the same dilemma. The HCA bankruptcy effect will compound geometrically -- when the uninsured business owner must declare bankruptcy, their employees will not only lose their paycheck; they will join a new much larger group of uninsured Americans.
