As the Kaiser article said, some insurance companies are hoping that the policy holders with pre-existing conditions won't re-enroll, as they are the company's most expensive customers. However, anyone can re-enroll and get the approved plan that have better benefits.
You mean the menu presented is limited by others (government) and you can't grocery shop for what you really want.

Semantics aside, there's not too much of a difference. Typically, govt's (especially western) subsidize specific behaviors or industries they want to encourage through the tax code.

Admittedly, even though I worked in lending, I didn't know jack about taxes till I went and took a class specifically about them. I had merely up to that point, turned over my stuff to an accountant to do them. Perhaps this might be the situation???
