I'm morally opposed to the mandate, but it'd be a lot easier to swallow if it allowed for low-priced catastrophic / high deductible plans. From what I've seen, even the bronze level plans are required to offer comprehensive coverage. But then, making young, healthy people pay for coverage they don't need is how Obamacare gets the numbers to add up...
Any real healthcare insurance reform (let's face it, that's what it is- not healthcare reform, but insurance reform) needs to decouple coverage from employment. I don't know that Obamacare helps much in that regard.
