You are an idiot. I was 20 AND DID HAVE INSURANCE. But you see back then the insurance could drop you and they did. So I was dropped bc I was diagnosed with MS and then I was screwed. So please tell me about how I’m seeking an entitlement or it’s the same as vehicle insurance. Consequences of my choices. Pfft

Call me what you want but I am not the one whining on a message board.
True or false: whatever the insurance company did or didn't do, you agreed to their terms.

There would have been less confusion if you would’ve told the whole story up front.

He's not an idiot. The concept of insurance has zero to do with fairness and everything to do with risk.
Life may have dealt you a bad hand, and that's certainly not "fair", but insurance has absolutely nothing to do with that. Are insurance company's so much more likely to incur the cost burden above your premiums that it makes it impossible to pool you into a group? If so, there's no feasible way to insure you

There are arguments on both sides of this issue. The best response would have been for Congress to create an assigned risk pool for those in your circumstances rather than the total disruption of health insurance which worked fine for the majority of us.
You might have sought employment with a company high provided group insurance for all employees and you would have been covered without having to prove your insurability. Most people who object to the Affordable Care act are sympathetic to your situation. We object to the imposition of higher premiums to give Obama his signature accomplishment when the 3% of those like you who ere frozen from coverage could have been provided for at a much lower cost.

I think there should be some qualifications for the coverage of preexisting conditions such as a requirement that one must have been on an insurance plan for, say, 3 out of the previous 5 years or at an age where one is generally still in school.
