What's always confused me about this is that insurance is, or has always been a bet. In the case of health insurance, you're betting that you will have medical expenses and the insurance company is betting that you won't. Or at least that your expenses will be less than what they charge you for insurance.
Forcing insurance companies to cover pre-existing conditions is like forcing someone to bet on a losing horse after the race has been run.
I don't see how there is ever going to be a solution to that issue.
