As was once said by a leader of a certain group in our society... "By any means necessary".
I'm worried about you.. with your ill health and constant need for surgery can you afford all this bitterness and hatred? I mean I know you've been unemployed for four years but try to stay upbeat and positive man... Moreover, if you're OK spending your days fighting health insurance companies and trying to get covered for stuff you should be covered for in the first place I can't argue with you man. Live and let live.
Personally I don't get why people would be so bothered about people being able to get health care...seems like a huge step forward to me. To get so worked up about an ill person being able to afford a doctor seems nutty.
No need to worry about me. I am a big boy and I take care of myself. However I have not uttered one word of hatred. (Rusty on the other hand...) People already CAN get health care. They can choose to spend their money how them damn well please. It is not the governments job to get into it though. Consumers have to fight all the time to get corporations to do as they should. I have to deal with Comcast frequently. I guess we should have the government take over the cable companies next since some people choose to spend money elsewhere and "cant afford" cable?
Well that is your opinion and if you enjoy bitchin' at comcast all the time that is your choice. I don't. Every other industrialized country in the world gives people health care and I don't see them complaining.. they live longer, experience healthier lives and it goes on and on.. I guess we just can't have it in the US according to you?
Personally, I think a healthy society is a better society. Rather than have people go to emergency rooms where we the taxpayers end up paying anyways why not have people buy health care so they can get preventive care?
Up to a few years ago there were close to 50 million people without health care and the numbers were rising. At those rates who knows but maybe 100 million people would lack health care in a few decades? I guess that is ok with you? Not much of a society if you ask me.
There is nothing wrong with government doing things to improve people's health. After all government is nothing more than us. We are the government. Don't we want people to live healthy and long lives? I know I do. I suppose you'd rather they die in the streets cause they didn't make the right choices.
By the way, I am guessing you have no problem collecting unemployment which makes you a big fuckin' hypocrite.
