(62,325 posts)the carnage in this country from lack of healthcare. And your defense of him, is disappointing to say the least. Do you think I should not be angry at those numbers? Do you think I should not be angry after spending time with a dying friend in the hospital desperately trying to get coverage so he could get treatment only to be told 'he earns too much'? Then when asking in disbelief, 'but what happens to people who can't get treatment' to hear 'They Die'. Just like that. Have you ever been in a situation where someone was dying and help was available but you were turned away??
Yes, eventually, after making himself indigent, he finally qualified, but it was too late.
So yes, I am very, very angry. And so are a majority of Americans. I did not believe they would actually let people die until I witnessed it myself. And that is why we fought so hard to get Democrats elected, to stop this dying.
Sid is highly amused by all of this, please do not try to defend him. DU is littered with proof of this behavior. I can't make it clearer, his posts here are highly offensive to Americans on this board and that is putting it mildly. The rules prevent me and a whole lot of other people, from expressing myself more clearly.
