29. and how many people are dying because they've been out of work for months
and are homeless?

The economy is NOT *getting better* as the pundits say. My DH just got a job after being out for 18 MONTHS -- and we're not in as bad shape as some of our neighbors.

It's not to devalue the folks without insurance -- we're included in that list. But you die pretty damned fast when you have no food and no roof over your head.

We were pretty damned speedy about bailing out the banks -- WHY isn't this being done for the working class?
