    Once they kill the provision that protects people with pre-existing conditions I’m dropping my health insurance completely. I refuse to pay them through my lost potential income for a “service” that they will just deny as soon as possible. Medical insurance companies can go fuck themselves.

      As someone with cancer, dear god I wish that was realistically an option for me.

      I’m probably realistically just gonna die soon, even though my medication probably would have let me live relatively comfortably the rest of my life.

      Even the generics of my meds are about $5k a month without insurance.

      I also won’t be able to afford regular blood tests or, you know, being able to see the cancer doctor.

        I wish I had something more comforting to say, but all I’m left with is rage towards the people that put you in this situation. So many people have so much more unnecessary anxiety now just so already disgustingly wealthy people can be more disgustingly wealthy.

        I wish all the calls for guillotines weren’t just empty words. :(
