The United States is the only developed country without a universal, cradle-to-the-grave health care system. In no other developed country would a girl be on “the verge of never hearing again” because a for-profit insurance company decided that its bottom line was more important than keeping a child from going deaf.
Disgusting. Truly, disgusting.
And, for the record, let me say that if any of the thus far floated "reforms" for health care actually see the light of day, I am not holding my breath, but my nose, because, as those that have been following this debacle already know, nothing being presented by the House or the Senate put so much as a dent into "reforming" health care as it currently exists in this country.
One of the truly sad, sad, things about this apparently free country we live in.
H/T to Think Progress.
