If you really believe this, just look at what has happened to homeowners insurance here in Florida. The choice was taking on high risk customers or leaving the State, and all the national firms left the state (or at least quit taking on new customers).

You can make it illegal for an insurance company to turn somebody down for preexisting condition. But you can't make an insurance company take new applications.

What will be left for those that don't already have insurance is the public insurance company.
