Children would be covered under CHIP if their parents were ignorant enough to forgo health insurance.
If someone is unemployed then it is likely that their lack of income would qualify them for continued coverage on Medicaid... they would just need to take the responsibility to sign up for Medicaid. Also, the solution that I envision would include some mechanism to make health insurance affordable low income people do not qualify for Medicaid similar to ACA subsidies.
Just like today:
That is true post-ACA but only in Medicaid expansion states. Otherwise people would have to spend down most of their assets to a few thousand dollars currently in order to qualify.http://www.ralphrobbins.com/Asset Test.htm
