For a moment I thought this opt out was actually in the bill. It apparently isn't.
The opt out would probably disproportionately drain healthy folks out of the system, but then I favor general tax revenue subsidies, not cross premium subsidies. Still, if one is uninsured, you still have the moral hazard problem, which I cannot accept. It is just bad public policy. Some sort of minimum level of insurance should be required.
