      In the last 24 hours, people have called me "trash" and "scum." But I still think Jimmy Kimmel was wrong.http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2017/05/03/what-jimmy-kimmel-s-monologue-about-his-son-didn-t-mention …

          That premium for metastatic cancer is essentially a death sentence. How do you reconcile that with a "pro-life" philosophy?

          it's a half-truth, AKA a LIE, when you neglect to point out that a high-risk pool = bankruptcy levels of debt to buy insurance.

          High risk pools have never worked b/c they're never sufficiently funded b/c the idea is to segregate them, not to insure them.

          Do you know how high risk pools work? Do you know that you have access to coverage but can be charged a trillion $ a month?

          This strips protections away. Why should my illness prevent me from accessing affordable insurance? Why are you or anyone more entitled?

          Because according to one Republican congressman, people with pre existing conditions lead bad lives so you're not worthy.

          It's 100% factually false. There is no high-risk pool that covers six-figure open heart surgery for an infant.

          Right, the line is true but it is disingenuous. With that waiver ppl with preexisting condition are priced out of the market.
