I’d argue the US for-profit health insurance system is state sanctioned terrorism of the civilian population for profit.
What greater way to terrorize a population than to deny them and their families healthcare, under the threat of bankruptcy? How about the threat of bankruptcy either way, whether they’re insured or not?
Saying “legally” isn’t much of an argument, IMO, not to imply you meant it as one. What’s legal or illegal is arbitrarily decided on by those in power, and arbitrarily enforced. The vast majority of these laws were not voted on by us and they’re rarely if ever reviewed.

Morally, yes. Legally, no.
Well no shit, state-sanctioned terrorism is always legal according to the state that sanctions the terrorism
