Healthcare

This is difficult but many younger people don't understand. Healthcare is about LIFE FOR EVERYONE!, younger people just don't think about death unless they get into trouble.

Neighbor had a 22 year old nephew, no healthcare that got cancer, he was passed around the system by doctors that made money off it but then died because he never really was treated. This bullshit about everyone gets treated is a massive lie pushed by rebooblicons.

Older people live under life and death based on the healthcare they have.

rebooblicons taking healthcare away from people can KILL them.

This is a war, life and death. It needs to be understood as a war! How else can you explain it?

this 22-year old kid did get to see docs?

And, if he is under 26 he can stay on his parents' insurance.

This is what happens when one doesn't have healthcare,

Doctors see you and pass you on because they don't see $$$ each doctor gets a fee and passes you on.

This was before the provision in ACA that persons under 26 could stay on their parents policies

Insurance co's, hospitals and doctors have colluded together to gain massive increases in their fees and costs through decades.
We are at a point unless the government starts controlling and rolling back costs we will be paying everything we haven then some for healthcare.
