maybe this is the entire crux of this issue. If pre-existing conditions are not coverable by our healthcare insurance industry, we do not have healthcare. We have healthcare for the healthy.
I find it inhuman and immoral to not treat and help my fellow man if they are sick, regardless of causality. If this is incompatible with the concept of "insurance" then we should not have a healthcare industry, we should have healthcare.
In my opinion, your admission that it's absurd to expect the institutions that provide healthcare coverage to cover certain people means those institutions are not the institutions I support. Healthcare should be available to everyone. Period.
This is why the capitalist model does not work for required services. If you can deny a
required service to someone under a business model, that's inexcusable.
