Citizen Frondo, you don't understand. If the market says you must not be insured it is right because the market is always right. Why, on this board you had people tell with a straight face that one should not bother to eradicate schistosomiasis and malaria in the African continent because if the continent was meant to be productive people would be spending money in the project right now.

If the OP is correct, then it is not the market that is enforcing the insurance scheme to reject cover for him based on pre-existing conditions, but rather the state that is making it illegal for schemes to be tailor-made for specific (pre-existing) conditions.
