Insurance is a competing market and companies can discriminate by age so the young don't subsidize the older though the insurance system.

You could argue that the healthy subsidize the sick but that's the point of insurance. It's like saying the living subsidize the life insurance payouts of the dead.

They discriminate in so many other ways. Thats all fine and good they are privately owned companies and can do what they want, but it's not a good setup for healthcare.
