It was interesting as I was chatting with some of my former

Everyone who is getting decent health care now has nothing to gain and
everything to lose. I think people are beginning to understand that.

The great insurance they have suddenly declares that you have a
pre-existing condition. They don't have to provide proof and you can't
stop the premiums until the first of the year or quit your job. They just
refuse to pay for any further service pertaining to your problem. Been
there, know the results. Screw the insurance companies. Capitalism at it's
finest.

If you haven't been there you know nothing!
