What does the rest of the world about us? We let people die who could be saved by healthcare. |
|
The insurance companies drop coverage for sick people, do not insure people who have been sick (isn't that the point of healthcare?), and deny life-saving operations for those who are covered. And yet the right-wing hypocritically accuses us of proposing death panels?
30,000,000 citizens that we know of do not have healthcare. Millions more have restricted healthcare or be tossed out of insurance programs at the first sign of sickness. We spend more money on healthcare than any other country. And yet, people who are affected by this are screaming with fear that any form of Government care would be bad for them.
How stupid have we become? People are making billions off this flawed system that leaves people DEAD.
Despite this, we have blue dog democrats holding up reform. We have repug leaders LYING about what is currently available and what reform would bring.
It's amazing that there even needs to be a debate, let alone a long and heated one. What does this say?

Well, they do that in Togo and Chad. What's your beef?
