What I'm saying is if, for example, my spouse and I could work enough to pay our bills without working full-time jobs I absolutely would. And that would not require taking advantage of a government subsidy. If I worked 10 hours a week as a consultant at $120/hour, that's over $60k, well out of the realm of any real "subsidy" from the government for insurance.

So, no, I do not agree with him.

Requiring insurance companies to charge you and a person at a healthy weight the same price is a subsidy (and applies at all income levels).

You agree with his claims, just not his tone.
