(82,383 posts)If a poor person had MS, it would be their fault due to lifestyle choices. Which is ridiculous, and they know it, as shown in their admiration of the rich having all they need to get the best treatment.
Deplorable doesn't even begin to describe them. And I'd love to see them take "personal responsibility" for their illnesses. I have an uncle who had bladder cancer, controlled apparently and his wife has had MS her whole adult life. Yet they don't' believe the "losers" should get any help they can't afford.
Another thing they do is volunteer for charity - to prove they are rich and that they aren't mean because they are willing to help, it's just that the government should not. As we know from the Golden Age, that just does not help enough people.
