To the morality folks:
Would taking ACA subsidies with qualifying income and enough resources to ER be any more immoral than moving to another country with some type of national health care?
If so, then why?
The point of ACA was to make premiums "affordable" ie less than 10% of income.
If we let the (regulated) free market determine actual premiums, then by definition the government would need to make up the difference.
Again, if we didn't have a 400% FPL cliff, nor employer sponsored health care, I suspect we would see much less criticism of the ACA.
