In fairness, I don't have MS. It's a family member, which is why I'm pretty passionate about my stance.
Again, he has coverage, but only because his fiancée's plan, shockly, included him as a dependent.
If that wasn't the case, there is no doubt in my mind, my parents would burn their retirement savings, sell their house, and go back to work to subsidize his medication, if that was needed.
Honestly, I can't say that my kids college funds would be smaller, and my own retirement plans would be sacrificed. That's not to mention what his own children's education funds, and futures would look like.
But yeah, those diagnosed with MS, ALS, Alzheimer's, etc need to understand how the real world works.
I mean it's not like it's the government's job to change how the real world works and try and make it equitable for everyone!
