"Preexisting conditions," the insurance companies said. Before Obamacare there were times we were uninsurable.

Civilized nations have universal healthcare. The U.S.A. is not a civilized nation. We have the most expensive healthcare system in the world yet it doesn't serve everyone, the actual care we get is mediocre by most objective standards, it's frequently inappropriate, and far too often deadly.

It seems to me the Republican Party wants to make healthcare in the U.S.A. worse than it is in every way -- more costly, serving fewer people, with lower quality care.
