That's the problem... many people work for it but never get
it. Or, they have it, use it, then get laid off and can't get it
again for a variety of reasons, including the new employer
not offering it, they can't afford it because rates have gone
up, or they're denied coverage because of prior conditions.

I pay $230 a year for the supplement to my primary insurance. That policy
cost me 20 years of work initially to earn. I pay about $70 a year for
Divers Assistance Network diving and medevac for any reason from anywhere
in
the world. Through the union I have complete coverage on yet another
policy
for 120 days of work the first year and 60 days minimum every year
thereafter. So . . .lets see . . . .two complete policies plus the DAN
costs me . . ..carry the 7 and .. oh yes . . . .$300 per year or $25
per
month and at least 60 count them 60 whole days of work. 'course . . .you
gotta be willing to actually work but in my industry there's plenty of it.
And if I was to go down THAT road again insurance for family (any number
from one to whatever) would be another $230 a year with no pre existing
condition exclusions.

WHAT insurance problems?

What? Easy for me to say? hmmmmmm True! But then of course, not
belonging to the privileged classes, I had to go out and work for it.

It ain't rocket science.

Have a nice day
