My father died two months ago at age 88 of cancer. Prior to his death he spend 4 days on a gurney in an emergency room. No rooms! And this was in one of the more affluent areas of the US and he was probably considered upper middle class. 4 days, dang it!
This was all I needed to see to know how the Dick Cheney's of the world look upon every one else's right to health care.
This ain't about clean living, meditation, oneness with God. It's about reality. It's about stuff happens to the most health conscious folk, like my dad was. And it's about when the chips are down, the health care sysytem in the US is here only for the upper 5%....
