Keep in mind, the subsidies were not just used by early retirees and those with ample $$, but by millions of people who could not otherwise afford health insurance. That's what we're talking about here. If millions of people cannot afford health insurance, that will bring EVERYONE's insurance costs up. People will be less likely to go to checkups, they will report to the ER for everything instead, they will not be able to pay, insurance rates go up. There is no excuse for this country to NOT subsidize health care insurance for its citizens.
