Typical conservative. Always thinking about yourself instead of the greater good of our country.

This is so educational.

I now equate someone who has a congenital condition, e.g. asthma or Type I diabetes, with someone who chooses, five times, no less, to drive while drunk because the person with the congenital condition chose to have that condition.

I also equate someone who has a pre-existing condition with someone who has 'waited until he's sick' to get medical coverage... even though he's already sick with a chronic, incurable condition which requires a life time of management.

I would think that along with the insurance would be higher premiums and also less coverage, that is usually how it works. The truth is it really does not matter either way the costs are passed around. For example , person can not buy or chooses not to buy insurance due to pre existing, person delays diagnostic tests, treatment etc , person gets sicker, goes to hospital now in an emergency condition, hospital forced to deliver care, bill paid for by government meaning every legal citizen/ tax payer. There is where the illegal situation, well we all know what that is about.

Being compassionate is easy with other people's money.
