What if the combination of a lack of an individual mandate plus requiring coverage for pre-existing conditions with no surcharge causes the entire health insurance industry to collapse, forcing the government to step in and take over insurance for everyone in the country?

This isn't even as bad as it's going to get. Premiums are going to go way up due to what you're mentioning above. Ryan is dead set on privatizing Medicare which will make anything more than a primary care visit so prohibitively expensive only the legit super wealthy can afford health care. No private insurer would take a 65+ year old for anything short of 50k a year.

Paul Ryan says insurance can't work if people who don't get in car wrecks must pay more to subsidize the ones who do.
Paul Ryan says insurance can't work if standing homes must pay more to subsidize ones that burn down
Paul Ryan says insurance can't work if dry homes must pay more to subsidize the flooded.

How is a link with that lieberal Rachel Maddow in it supposed to convince anyone who's not already on her side?

It won't, but at least it may stir up more awareness in people who are sympathetic to the arguments but more apathetic. In general we should all be striving to promote civic activism wherever we can. Even if you get one more person to pay attention to a downticket race it's a victory, and stuff like this can open that door, maybe?? (That is a genuine maybe and not a sarcastic or rhetorical maybe)

In a very serious Paul Ryan voice: What if we took all of the super sick and costly people and bundled them together into a "high risk pool"? Bundling them makes it more efficient! Surely someone in the free market would want to insure people who routinely rack up 500k a year health care costs?

There is a grand total of one (1) insurance carrier on the West Virginia ACA marketplace because of this. West Virginians are so unhealthy that they collectively form a high risk pool.

  • "Our members are frustrated that we have to play be Senate rules."
  • Ryan on if he'd postpone health care vote: "I'm not going to get into hypotheticals..we're adding votes by the way."
  • Trump has been "bringing members down there in groups, turning votes around..and closing the deal."
