Is getting sick a crime?
How many victims of our Health Uncaring System do you think end up in overcrowded prisons because they can't afford to pay their overinflated medical bills? It doesn't have to be an exact number. It's just something that can happen to any of us, you know?

(BTW, last night I saw a story on bill collectors having to be "Mr. Mean" in order to get people to pay up. I wonder how many medical-bill victims end up on their phone lists...)

1. Yet it is. That's why we need to create a user friendly
medical system that wants to heal more than it wants a marble hallway, or fancy equipment.

Quit a job with NCR about 4 months ago as a contractor, NCR apparently hires "temps" after 12 months of service.


Too bad after I left, a day later, I landed a GREAT JOB!!!!

They called me back about a month ago, said SORRY have a better job.

FUCK NCR

Corporate america is just a bunch of suits and empty promises, Fuck your pool, your wine cellar, your housekeeper and your home theater!!!
