That’s the structure we have.

You do realize that a) the ACA does regulate the insurance market and that b) the pushing/pulling of everyone into the insurance market makes those regulations work?

This mandate works in a very similar fashion to the monopoly granted to utilities. By putting everyone in the same market, it makes sure big costs can be shared.
