The individual mandate problem could be solved very easily (but won't be). Rather than penalize not having insurance, you offer an incentive to have it. Make premiums tax deductible.

What I find puzzling in the whole debate (or would, if it was actually about health care reform, rather than pushing a political agenda) is that we know it was government intervention and policy that pushed us into the now unworkable employer based insurance system, and so, the answer, according to the Dems, is more government intervention and policy.

Call me weird, but when I have a problem, part of fixing the problem is eliminating the cause of it. Not increasing the cause of it.
