Reply #85: well you know people are dying

[pitohui]

i don't think it quite fair to expect us not to say anything about the health insurance industry when every damn one of us who have commented on the thread in question know people who have been killed and others who have been seriously hurt by the refusal of care caused by the fact that we or people close to us are not allowed to have this insurance

should we have to die or be maimed forever because "think of the health insurance employees?" i'm sorry that is wrong to ask of us

hurt feelings don't compare to people you know going untreated for cancer or brain injury

if you can't understand that, then yeah, hide the thread and go on your way, there is never any obligation to open a thread that might hurt or challenge you

the department of defense issue is different, didn't see the thread in question, but reasonable people can agree that a nation needs a strong defense and there is no sin in working toward that end

but as far as health insurance industry is concerned, everyone involved should get an honest job, they are killing us
