237. been thinking on this all day.........
"Why are exclusions for 'pre-existing' conditions 'onerous'? Do you think it's ok to force businesses to accept clients that are almost certain to cost them money? Maybe it's acceptable to you because the additional cost of your care (or ...someone elses) will be subsidized by everyone else's higher premiums.

"Other businesses charge higher prices for customers that will affect their bottom line. For example, bad drivers pay more for car insurance because of their increased risk of accidents, etc.

"Health care is no different. It's a business. Health care is not a right - it's a product that can be purchased by the consumer."

It seems to me your question to him should be "When did you become a sociopath?" That is what his words expose. Pure sociopath.
