The ‘pre exisiting condition’ is a multifaceted beast.

My story: worked for major employer for 22 years. I have diabetes, managed with diet and exercise.

I was laid off at the age of 50.

So I found myself uninsured, with a ‘pre existing’ condition, even though I’d played the game by the rules.

I shall regard anyone defending a denial of myself or someone in that situation exactly like I would a robber, rapist or carjacker, the only question is what caliber I should shoot them with and should it be so that they die fast, or slow.

I have zero sympathy for fat, smoking slobs who don’t take care of themselves (I run, lift and don’t smoke, and do the other things any responsible adult does), and/or people who have never played by the rules until the NEED healthcare, but if someone is trying to tell me that being uninsured with a pre-existing condition is (was, am employed now, of course) *MY* fault? I’d be perfectly justified in beating them half to death with a meat tenderizer and then setting them on fire.
