And on the Mental Health note, I've been diagnosed with a plethora of disorders, and had many pills thrown at me, I'd just rather not become an emotionless Zombie.
But my health care situation, BEFORE I made it back onto an insurance policy. I worked. I worked my fucking balls off, typically coming in at a little over 35-50 hours a week. I payed for an Apartment, and I had to pay for Insulin(type 1 diabetic), I couldn't afford to go see a doctor, because with over 50% of my pay check going to rent, 20% going to Insulin, and gas (at the time in the 3.50-4.50 a gallon area) I came out with a cool 100 or so dollars to eat on a month. 20% of my paycheck a month went to keep me alive for about 20 days, so I was paying about $10 a day to live, not to not feel pain or something like that, but to live. Yes I think healthcare should be Universal, but no I don't think everything should be covered. If you do not have a life threatening disease/illness you should have to pay for your prescription, if not the treatment.
Be 20 and on your own without parental help before you say Universal Healthcare is a shit Idea, I don't see most of the money I make anyways, so being taxed more wouldn't bother me a bit.
And I've noticed, It's the top 10%-20% wealthiest in a nation who bitch about socialism. It works suprisingly well for other countries, what's your problem with it?
And before I'm told to GTFO of america, I will finish my education here, then promptly move, because I've see the idiocy this country manufactures by the hand full.
