Everyone is a victim, everyone deserves free sh** from the government.
To each according to his needs.
From what I gather, the whole “pre-existing condition” debacle is really just a short-term (60 days?) reasonable-cost (X% of normal coverage?) speed bump to encourage people to _stay_ insured without completely screwing them over if they’re not (i.e.: situational break in coverage).
NOBODY is addressing what the bill _actually_ says about pre-existing conditions, they’re just making it out as the worst thing evar.
My take, unlike any other view seen:
Buying insurance is like buying lottery tickets: you probably won’t “win”, but if you do then you get a lifetime monthly payout. Problem is, current system is like requiring you to keep buying lottery tickets to keep the payouts coming, and if you stop once then your monthly payouts end forever - so the group paying “winners” has an incentive to find any excuse to cut off payments.
So, my take is that if you are insured and develop a “condition” then that insurance company should be on the hook for covering that condition for life - just like a lottery pays the winner for life.
Just a thought.
So, SCREW UP the health care for over 300 Million people because you want something for YOUR SON?
Selfish stupid ass.
that’s nice. she’ll be last
The argument to be made : the ACA REQUIRES everybody to buy insurance. the new AHCA requires insurance companies to continue to cover anybody who already has coverage, regardless of condition.
SO, the ONLY people who could possibly have a pre-existing condition problem are people who REFUSED TO OBEY the Obamacare mandate.
So the left is arguing for people who rejected their own health care plan.
