RE: Ulog #073 | Kidney Stones in the Worst Moment (with Updated picture of devilish stone)
I am happy, at least, that the stone is out! But your illness sounds horrible, it must be so frightening to be sick there.
Yes I can see pieces of this travesty creeping into the US, especially in our inability to pay for medical services, and appreciate your plea that we not let it happen here. The problem is, it is not clear who the enemy really is.
Thanks for stopping by. I think the enemy is injustice. It can come dressed in right, center or left. I think that developed countries have no justification to have certain demographic groups under financial pressure. I think that whenever the filthy rich manage to avoid taxes while the poor pay more than they can afford we have a problem.
Worse problem when the left promises to right that wrong and corruption, self-interests, and resentment makes everything worse and the poor become poorer while the rich remain powerful.
Can't understand why it is so difficult to find a balance.
From what I see here, it is that both "sides" believe their political party are working for our best interests, when in reality both political parties are working for the rich. The left lies more about it though, making socialist policies, such as medicare for all, sound good. I just want to be charged reasonable fees, and NO ONE is talking about that except in a few isolated instances, such as insulin. I fear the price of insulin and epipens has been deliberately manipulated so that we will fall into the trap of socialized medicine. It is very scary here now, made more frightening whenever I learn more about your plight in Venezuela.
