That mother, Ms. Drill, *deserved* better than dropping to the floor and dying in a strangers home, next to a fucking vacuum cleaner that she was trying to sell, because she couldn't afford life saving medication, due to the States unwillingness to expand medicaid...*solely for purely partsian political reasons.* There is not a god damn thing that is noble about this. Which, I might add, I saw coldly implied in the Orlando Weekly thread. I paraphrase, "Welp, her children can be proud that while they may have been poor, their momma was trying her best not to be a taker." That was the closet fucking thing I saw to sympathy from the, "all poor people are lazy", crowd. God damnit.
and that's the kicker... we didn't just refuse to expand medicaid.. we refused because our (R) Governor didn't want to look like an Obama-loving liberal..
the absurdity of that floors me..
