In reply to the discussion: I'm so tired of stupid, angry white people [View all]Patiod
(11,816 posts)She was a hairdresser whose insurance was never covered by the salons where she worked. She had fibroids, and almost died of blood loss because she couldn't afford surgery to correct them.
She finally found a Pennsylvania plan for low-income people (back before PA cut all those programs)and got a hysterectomy to correct the problem (less drastic options weren't covered).
She eventually left hairdressing and went to work for a convenience store that provided health insurance. She can't afford to live on what they pay, but fortunately, she is able to live with an elderly parent.
And...she posts anti-Obama, anti-ACA screeds on her FB page.
Makes no sense at all, but I'm guessing that it's a Angry Poor White thing.
Divide and conquer indeed.
