after this country exposed me to radiation (on purpose Hanford in Pasco in Washington State) as a child and I did have medical problems from it. This gutless country took 60 years before they told me...I guess I should honor it that at least they told me, but I could have died before 60 years of age. I sometimes wonder if that wasn't what was hoped for as I am low income and could not start anything legal.
Despite several of the family working we could not afford medical care so my granddaughter of 14 1/2 yrs old found her mother
dead on the floor because we did not have enough money for even to see a doctor. And she was employed...even employment doesn't pay living expenses..damn close to slavery (as one of the female Republicans said they should not have to pay a living wage)
This country murdered my daughter because some of you in the medical profession are perfectly willing to let someone die if they don't have the money (House speaker Ryan-Republican said if you don't have money to pay for care then just die).
I had the misfortune to be borne in the US. My life would have been worlds better if I had been in another developed country. Maybe my granddaughter would have had a mother until she was 18yrs old. Pledge allegiance to this nation's flag...a cold day in hell.
