So, the very last ACA insurance company in many parts of TN (Humana) is pulling out. There will be NO option for people in some places in TN to get onto the exchange.
MASSIVE FAIL by a MASSIVE FAILURE.

so many now/still without insurance and many who had good insurance don't any longer due to the laws that made it difficult if not impossible for companies to offer good plans....so now many many more people with no or mediocre coverage

Companies pulling out of the exchange was the anticipated result of those who wanted a single payer system. When they couldn't get the single payer law to pass they put so many restrictions on Insurance companies so they eventually would pull out.

You cannot have government hands so deeply involved in what is supposed to be a free market enterprise. The government can't make people continually lose money - it was a bad plan and badly implemented.
If they wanted government sponsored healthcare, they should have used a government system. That would be horrible, too, but wouldn't rely on private companies having to fall in line.
