Sounds like the “major CEO” has never had to buy individual health care insurance as an entrepreneur in 2009. In the current market, he would be automatically denied due to a range of pre-existing conditions. I would be fascinated to learn how he would enjoy life without basic health insurance coverage.
I don’t think the health care plan is perfect, but at this point the proposed reforms are *much* preferable to the status quo.
And making it easier/possible to buy health insurance fuels entrepreneurial ventures, which is great for America’s long-term economic growth.
Just one entrepreneur’s point of view.
