>>Although I am pretty ancient, I am not yet old enough to be on Medicare. These are long standing policies through private insurance that we have had for years. You may call this an anecdote, but it is the actual experience of a real person and not political marketing slime.
You're saying that your insurer fired you and that there is no affordable replacement? If so, I agree that's a disgrace.

"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
