Of course, if the government weren't providing perverse incentives to
the health care market, you wouldn't be locked into buying health care
from an employer.
I think catastrophic health insurance is a good idea. Unfortunately, the
self-employed and unemployed are at a disadvantage in getting inexpensive
health insurance since the government subsidizes employer-provided
health care. Even worse, there are a bunch of absurd rules that make it
difficult for health insurance providers to compete on a national level, and
so people who are unfortunate enough to live in certain states and not work
for an employer must pay ridiculously high rates for health care.
