the longer I live in this country the more I hate it

[Stargazer99]

when I was a small child in the 1940, in Pasco WA my country decided to release radiation from Hanford Nuclear reservation which accumculated in my thryoid needed to be removed-I did not appreciate this damaging of my body, but who was going to tell me what a nasty thing my own country did to me...I dont appreciate being a human guinee pig for the rest of you

My oldest daughter died from lack medical care, even though she was working for one of conservative capitalist
That BS about the honor of working is just that. cheap labor. Who gives a damn if labor dies-slavery is the right to work
It amazes me how dumb the common man is! Must be that wonderful education not available to the lower classes due to cost
We know the well to do don't suffer from lack of knowledge
Incendentally a 14 year old daughter lost her mother due to the nasty attitude toward the working poor. How would you like to wake up at 15 yrs of age and find you mother dead on the floo r (from a death that could have been prevented) Who cares it wasn't you
After falling off a deck last summer, my breathing became more and more difficult and didn't have the money to pay for a dr appointment. After 4 weeks I could no longer breath and went into the emergency room in desperation. They found I had blood clots on both lungs. In my heart's fight for my life the left side of the heart is now weak- One dr visit could have prevented this but you cons were determined not to chance useless dr visit

Why would I hate a country that would let my children die? And weaken my heart-too bad it didn't kill me-just think one more poor person out of your hair. I plan to make your conservative life as miserable as you have made mine. I am discussed with this county, I wish I could thread this world wide and show what conservative cares about..money not human life-right to lifers leave a lot to be desired, what the hell makes you think only babies have a right to life?

1. So sorry for your losses.

Peace to you.

2. I've lost people I love due to a lack of proper care also.

I wish I could offer up some eloquent words to help give you hope, but I don't know any to ease your personal suffering.

All I can do is say I know, and understand your pain and anger, and I'm right there with you in being disgusted with the "morals" of conservatives.

3. So sorry

Hang in there. We need to stick together. Some of us really do care.

[Eko]

4. Sorry.

That's not how America should be. We should fight to change that, maybe one day we can win. Peace.

5. you have framed this well

good point - why aren't the right to lifers fighting for decent healthcare for all. I hope you write letters to the editor in your local paper and surrounding cities. Tell this to your elected senators and congress people.

The radiation issue is criminal. I know so many who have had damaged health for most of their lives. Some are research subjects at the U of Washington but does the government give a crap? No.

6. Unless it happens to them they WON'T relate to it.

Good luck to you!

7. Sorry for your losses, and thanks for sharing.

8. I am sorry,

You were so right in your analogy. Those were preventable problems that should not have happened, with the right programs in place.
Greed has won this in this New and very damaging political coup d'etat. Hang on for a nasty ride, to all in a similar situation. This great country has been hijacked by powers with no sympathy or plans for the poor and uneducated. Except for the only recourses you had for your health problems.
I am almost in that situation, and I understand your pain.

9. I've often wondered how it would be to live in a normal country

Instead of a superpower that fancies itself as the leader of the free world.

10. Our country is very corrupt.

I know and feel your pain.
