85. I am so, terribly sorry about your wife, Dragonfli.

Personally, from what I have seen of people who were willing to go along with no public option, who make excuses as to why it was never even an option, they know that people are dying and have died as a result of our shameful excuse for a HC system. For some reason even when the figures were released, over 44,000 people a year, it did not move them one bit. Some I know truly believed we were getting the best we could, but many cared only about our team winning.

I am certain that Cid knows the numbers, has seen the stories, and if he still thinks it's a laughing matter knowing these things, then I doubt anything will change that. But who knows, anything is possible. But is it worth it? I am not personally interested in the opinions of people who 'have theirs' but who have the gall to work against us 'having ours'. It really is none of their business unless they support the majority of Americans who DO want Medicare for All. If not, then they can laugh all they want, but they can expect to be told to 'mind your own business'.

I would think it would be an emotional thing for you to do, and I do not think it is worth risking the reaction. Although writing an OP about what you experienced would be a good thing imo, and in that OP, where you would be assured of a more respectful reaction, you could consider posting the picture. What do you think your wife would want you to do? That's what I consider first and foremost. Do not allow people who are so cavalier about the lives of other people, to influence you, is how I feel about it.

Again, I am truly sorry for your loss.
