Here in the land of the free and the home of the brave, the United States of America, this is how the American dream works.
If you get really sick, like with leukemia, the chances are quite good that you will eventually lose your job. You employer will trump up some other kind of charges in order to get rid of you, but it will really be so that they won’t have to suffer the financial expenses of your illness.
When you do get sick, there is no way possibly that most people can afford health insurance. And even if you did have a pot of gold hidden somewhere, the health insurance companies consider someone who has leukemia to be uninsurable.
All flag waving, patriotic Americans understand this. Anyone who questions this is obviously suspect, probably some kind of foreigner, or maybe a pinko commie intellectual who reads books and believes in left wing things like socialized medicine.
In America only the strong survive. It is kind of like what Charles Darwin talked about, except of course we are taught not to believe in Darwin’s theory of evolution. Our political leaders like Ronald Rayguns, George Bush I & II, and Rush Limbaugh have taught us that things work out the way they do because of intelligent design. Whatever happens is just God’s will, so one should accept it with good grace and not complain. All that complaining just bums other people out.
