Just in case the Facism topic doesn't do the trick I'm hoping this will! :laugh:

The right-wing anti-Obama-care movement is OK with killing off tens of thousands of Americans each year.
That's what this is all about: The right-wingers and their corporate sponsors are protecting a medieval and violent health care system that kills more Americans each year than all the Americans who have died in the war on terror since 2001, including the 3,000 victims of 9/11, and the 5,000-plus U.S. service members who have died in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Every two months, the American health care industry is party to the slaughter of more Americans than al-Qaida managed to kill. Osama bin Laden must look at the Tea Baggers, FreedomWorks, health-industry billionaires like Rick Scott and the rest, and think, "If only I could kill as many Americans as they do! These guys are pros!"

My brother had diabetes and refused to accept it or take care of it. He did not have health insurance but could afford to go to the doctor. He died at 45 of a heart attach because of it. You can give or force people to be insured but that still will not save their lives.
