In our new series “The Cost of Denial,” NBC News’ Anne Thompson reports on the young man who went to refill his asthma inhaler only to find it unaffordable because it was no longer covered by his insurance. He left the pharmacy with an emergency inhaler that his father says was found empty by his bed.

      I think our inhumane health insurance system predates Trump being president by at least a little bit…
