That was an awesome video.  It wasn't full of propaganda or anything.  At the end when they took Americans to Cuba to be treated was the best.

5 cent inhalers, compared to our 120.oo inhalers...  That's just insane.

Still don't think I'll vote for Hilary. :D

Blu is right, the movie had no propaganda whatsoever just true stories about a terrible mess. My mom does not have health care right now and its really scary. Skip to the end to see how he helped his biggest rival. :D

They didn't show my story. Health insurance saved my ass, literally - quickly, promptly, with no fuss.

Wait a minute, that wouldn't make for a good movie...

Maybe I live a charmed life, but most everyone I know has had the same experience.

Well like I said I a Fortunate enough to be in the Military. I know most of my friends and family back home do not unless they are on some kind of Government program and even that does not cover nearly all of them.

Watch this.

What a  shame....

I knew health care was bad but this is horrifying


i'm going down that road right now.. with the deductable each year.. "$500.00" and the out of pocket each year of "$3000.00" and the copay each infusion and check up.. $40.00 each time which equels about $1000.00 a year.. gran total is about $4500.00 each year for the rest of my life!!! if the price for everything does'nt go up each year..this year the copay went up $10.00 a visit..

and i only make just over $12.00 and hour.. oh and on top of what i allready pay i allso pay $150.00 a month for the insurance.. which equals $1800.00 a year which brings the gran total to $6300.00

my gross pay for the year for 40 hours a week is $25833.60 thats is gross :yuck: :barf: my net pay after taxes is about $ 19891.60 minus the $6300.00 equels
$13591.60 is what i'm left out of my pay..oops i forgot something the 401k which is about $1200.00 a year the new gran total left from my pay for me is $12391.60 then i have to pay all my regular bills... :mad: do you really want to know whats left after that about :2c: :disappoin

i'm not going to be able to watch that whole video tonight ..

from what i watched sofar got my attention was at 14.31 into the video where they name all the diseases that insurance companies will not cover. "funny starwars spoof" mine was named i guess it was a good thing i had insurance before i diagnosed:rolleyes:

but i don't see it being covered for ever since it cost about $540,000.00 a year for the rest of my life..just for the treatment alone..

Electrical tape was for small cuts, duct tape was for those which really should have gotten stitches....

with the cost of healthcare and being broke and not being insured(my whole life) the only time i ever seen a doctor is when coming out of the back of an ambulance.
my philosiphy is if i can stand up and walk home it aint worth going to the hospital over.
