every state should have something setup for people who can't get insured.
I'll check that out, but keep in mind my point was also to highlight how many people don't have insurance because it's not always easy to get, even if they can afford it. It's not just people who are lazy or broke but professionals too, but especially the self-employed and the options are very limited.

Update: I just checked the information, and went through the carriers for my county, and it was the exact same providers that turned me down. There's nothing wrong me either. I'm mostly healthy, non-smoker, not overweight, but I had visited the doctor and had an inconclusive diagnosis. One of the attorneys I know had a similar issue, except he had taken something like lipitor for a year, about 3 or 4 years ago but hasn't needed it since.
