So why are they high risk again?
Why do these people not have insurance now? Can they not afford it or do they not qualify for it because of a pre-ex?

If they can't afford it how are they going to afford it once the bill is passed?
If it's because they have a pre-ex they will then be eligible but their premiums will be higher than someone who doesn't.

I'm looking at it from a logical financial standpoint, which is objective.
Health care is expensive, I can't afford to take care of you on top of myself, so I choose me. That is logical and rational
