129. So it's not evil to profit from someone else's illness?
Disagree with Bieber all you want (even if overreactive in its vehemence), but can you argue that there is not something inherently evil about the "richest nation on earth" allowing its citizens to go broke because they cannot afford health care? That doctors, pharmaceutical companies, and medical supply companies make money hand over fist while premiums for middle-class families are upwards of $500-$1000 a month even if employers chip in?

Are you so blinded by your contempt for youth and/or celebrity that you cannot see there is some validity to his points?
