Read The Fine Print, You Fat Smoker.

Remember Team Hopenchange's "you can't be denied coverage or pay higher premiums because of a pre-existing condition" health-care goal? Seems they left out a word: "Approved." As in, "You can't be denied coverage or pay higher premiums because of an approved a pre-existing condition."

Apparently, if you have a condition that the government does not approve of, it's gonna cost you. You will have no choice. After reform, the government will decide what is - and is not - approved, and "reform" will make it illegal for you to purchase medical services outside of the government approved system.

Dear readers, I can't stress this enough: Health-care "reform" as pushed by The Left/Mainstream Media has nothing to do with reform; it has to do with control. It has to do with a bunch of moral crusaders forcing you live by the moral values they set and make the lifestyle choices they think you should make. This is social(ist) engineering, plain and simple. They believe they have the Right to force you to live your life they the way they think it should lived, to exercise what liberty they think is good for you to exercise, and for you to pursue what they think should bring happiness.

For the Left/Mainstream Media, "choice" only belongs to decisions about where you stick your pecker, or vacuuming out the consequences thereof.

I see nothing wrong with insurance companies charging more for persons who have conditions or behaviors that will cost the insurers more. I have two conditions that make me more expensive to insure. But it is the height of intellectual hypocrisy for for Team Hopenchange and their allies in The Left/Mainstream Media to claim we need reform because it is wrong for insurance companies charge more for pre-existing conditions, when that is exactly what they themselves intend to do.
