Additionally, my boss was telling me that in order for him to give medical/dental benefits to his employees through AHCA it will cost $4000 a head, while the penalty for not insuring them is only 2k per person. In what world would a small-business owner go along with insuring their workforce through this system?

It is a case by case basis ACA is a plus for many people especially people that don't have insurance and want it and couldn't get it because of pre-existing conditions.
Of course there are a group of young millennials like yourself that think you are invincible and don't need to buy into it or get health insurance but you won't be penalize if you are making less than 80k per year or something similar for a single person.
