How do you make the logical leap from "there should be equal treatment under the law" to "people who cost far more to insure should nevertheless pay the same low price as lower risk insurees?" And since when is equality = giving shit to people who don't have enough shit? Welfare is a completely separate issue to equality under the law and should be treated as such. I have no problem with a position that is in favor of welfare, but with citing equal treatment under the law as the reason.
The ACA should have just been medicare for all and that be the end of it. Trying to impose price controls on an entire industry was a terrible play. Keep your welfare separate from your markets, IMO.
