        My roommate became prediabetic despite eating a healthier diet than I do, because of genetic factors.

        Her doctor caught it and was able to treat it in time because she had insurance from CA's Medicaid expansion.

        I guess they'll never talk about cheap starchy government commodities on Indian reservations as factor in high diabetes rates there either.

        And what about an athletic, clean-living young person who is struck with cancer or a sudden infection? Who elected you God, Mick Mulvaney?

        Genetics is part of a diabetes diagnosis. Mick Mulvaney is a lifestyle disease.

        how about a person who eats horribly and gets obese despite being wealthy? The US should therefore make Trump pay for his own healthcare.

        They're trying to make ill health a moral failing. Everything's about someone else's morality to the immoral and amoral.
