Then they're not insurance companies any more.

That's the root of the problem. The moment we say that healthcare is a universal right, it's meaningless to talk about insurance. It's not really insurance if everyone can get it for an affordable price, regardless of their risk level. Calling it insurance just muddies the picture at that point. It's tax-subsidized healthcare, and that's how it should be described, planned, and discussed.
