That was my case. I had health insurance, then my employer canceled it.

I have a pre-existing condition which meant no insurance companies would sell me insurance....no matter what I did, no matter which company I went to, I could not buy health insurance.

That, to me, is immoral. There should be a way for people to be able to receive health insurance.

Policy is way over my head, but I hope we somehow come up with a decent bill.

if health insurance were a truly free market, it never would have been tied to employment. thanks to FDR, that’s what happened. health insurance should be portable.

insurance companies would be forced to compete if not for subsidies and “tax credits” that govt run health insurance provide. the “market” becomes a relationship between insurance company lobbyists and donor-hungry politicians. the market should be directly between the individual consumer and the insurance company.
