The panic about individuals dropping their health care coverage due to Obamacare is premature. The linked article states that studies show that the number of people dropping health care coverage was typical of the normal market.
Also, there was concern about those that were forced to drop what was considered substandard policies. The Right-Wing and Corp-Media made a big deal about this. However, those that were forced to drop their substandard (to ACA standards) policies were provided the opportunity to buy thru the exchanges for health care coverage at better prices. And a note to those that argue that the government should allow them to buy substandard health care coverage if the want, remember that the government doesn't allow you to buy substandard cars from manufactures either.
