The policy should be that the federal government should not be involved in the American citizens purchase of healthcare. It is beyond the scope of powers granted by the constitution... if that matters to anyone anymore.
Most people these days don't even begin to think about whether any government entity has the authority to do this or that. They just hear somebody say something... then they think... that's a great idea... and then they are all for it.
As I said before... daytime talk show politics. It has no basis in reality. It is simply based on emotion and feelings.
