You just want someone else to pay for it. Insurance does not equal access.
And you mentioned your sister. Isn't she still a student? If her college doesn't offer her the option of buying insurance then they're the only one I've ever heard of.
Also, you denigrated the Medicaid coverage you had. So, you want others to pay for your healthcare, but you're going to complain about the mechanism that was used to pay for it? And out of curiosity, how does a non-disabled adult female without a child even qualify for Medicaid?
