the insurance companies will make their profit-if they get capped, they'll cut coverage.
it's kind of like credit cards. they made those rules to get rid of predatory lending. credit cards got more expensive, with higher rates and less people able to get credit in response to the latest rules put in place. it's a good example of a well intentioned law having unforeseen consequences.
