I also have seen people turned away because of repetitive substance abuse issues. It becomes a catch 22.

So true!
The funny part about this whole thing is that, as the rest of the world has proven, "socialized" health care is MORE EFFICIENT than the for profit system in the US. Every other industrialized nation pays dramatically less and has ALL of it's citizens covered. And those people never have to worry about losing their life savings or their homes if due to hospital bills.
