No? Just wait. Sooner or later we all develop one. It&#8217;s called &#8220;being alive&#8221;. Health insurance companies don&#8217;t care. They will gladly reject you on the basis that you are not healthy enough to qualify for health insurance. Sensible, huh?</p><p>One group that&#8217;s working to change things is Families USA. They have a nice new web site called <a
href="http://www.standupforhealthcare.org/">Stand Up for Health Care</a><br
/> that features lots of good information about the health care crisis and what you can do to help fix it. Please take a minute to check it out.</p><p>(The above post does not apply if you live in Europe, Canada or any of the other places in the world where people have guaranteed access to good health care.)</p><p><a
