Yeah, but what about all the other people who do not have work health insurance & disability offers, are unemployed, or currently are uninsurable, or have insurance but the company will not insure them for their chronic illnesses, etc?

That's who the ACA is trying to insure. Not the currently insured, but the currently under- and un-insured.

Yes, I agree it's sad to see people make bad life financial decisions for themselves and refuse employer offers like heath insurance, disability, matching 401K funds, etc.
