Also, if you're young, low income, no kids and have no assets declaring bankruptcy (in the event of a high cost health event) seems like a better scenario than being out $150/month for insurance (and still paying for other healthcare costs out of pocket).
As to one, ObamaCare is still failing, because too many young people are able to do the math and realize that, if they don't have chronic conditions or children, the IRS penalty for not having insurance is significantly cheaper than the premiums on the high-deductible, terrible plans that are available to them at any reasonable price. For anything less than a catastrophic illness or injury, the ObamaCare plans I have seen just don't make any sense.
