The Scary Country

Support for GOP debate for letting the uninsured die.

I'll be frank, I am neither Democrat or Republican, the sooner Americans figure out both these parties are betraying this country, the better off we will all be. But it seems the party of 1984 and war with Oceania {cough the Middle East} is at it again, doing more brainwashing to get Americans to embrace letting the poor and uninsured die.

Of course they use the proverbial healthy 30 year old who had the CHOICE for health insurance, here is the facts, MOST people aren't being given a choice, or the spend downs are so high they are basically uninsured. The weasels were masterful with that one.

“Last night we got a disturbing view into the tea party’s extreme right-wing position on healthcare when members of the audience clapped and cheered the idea of letting someone without health insurance die,” Eddie Vale, communications director for the group Protect Your Care said in an e-mail. “Even worse, none of the Republican candidates on stage expressed a word of disapproval as the tea party audience literally clapped for blood. This was a spectacle one would have expected back in the gladiatorial combat of ancient Rome, not at a presidential debate.”

I went years without medical insurance, it did not do me any favors, in my case it was not a choice, none of my jobs offered it. Even with a full-time job later, the spend down was a $1,000 dollars meaning I had to pay the first $1,000 of ANY medical costs so the insurance was nearly useless. In fact one heart problem I now have is due to having my thyroid tests delayed, I still remember the day, a doctor refused me thyroid testing because I did not have the $500.00 up front this was before I found the pro-bono endocrinologist. If these leaders are so successful at getting people to blame the young, down and out and poor instead of those who have greedily outsourced all the jobs and taken billions in bail-outs, that's scary.

America used to be different in that it took care of it's own. It didn't believe in starving urchins in the street anymore. Well it seems to be different. Both sides are working against the little guy. I'll never forget they put ending disability on the table just a couple months ago, and that time it was OBAMA.

"Doesn't Anyone Care"?

"Obama Doesn't Care If The Disabled [Fat or Not] and Old Die in The Gutter"

If anyone is putting their finger in the air, to sniff which way the wind is going in America, it's looking very scary and especially for those with disabilities and health problems. Think they'll care about some 500lb woman? I know what it is like to be sick with no medicine and treatment, those days stayed with me. For those who love these politicians any of them, ask yourself why?, and stop being brainwashed by them!
