You're absolutely right. It should be defined as a preexisting condition. Where do we draw the line on "addiction" issues...how much of it is "my" issue, and how much of it is "societal?" I drink...I pay taxes and insurance premiums. I understand that at some point drinking becomes detrimental to my health, yet I'm a productive member (ostensibly) of society. What should be covered and what should not?

Believe it or not, this is an honest question...I've my own opinions on it, but their rationality (as is the nature of opinions) is suspect..what's your(in the general, not only ChifaRoo's) opinion?
