Insurance (none / 1)
Apples are not like oranges.

I guess what you are suggesting is that people with preexisting conditions should just go away & die.

No. I am suggesting that insurance companies cannot insure against preexisting medical conditions any more than they can insure against a house that is already on fire. The Salvation Army can certainly donate food, clothing and shelter to homeowners who have lost everything in uninsured house fires, but we can't mandate that insurance companies pay the uninsured homeowners without severely distorting the insurance market.


If you think health care is expensive now, wait until you see what it costs when it's "free."

Right (none / 1)
Health care is not a right; health care is a service rendered in exchange for remuneration.
