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.

Health care is a commodity. Stop blurring the lines of definitions to support your cause and if you don't believe me pull your head out of your ass and look at the stock market under: Merck. As the honorable Rush Limbaugh used to say: Words Mean Things.
So when does a service not become "required". You should be in favor of making food free, then gas, then housing, then...
