"If the United States is supposed to uphold "Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness" how can a sick or dying person without health care have these rights."

"Any health care funding plan that is just, equitable, civilized and humane must - must - redistribute wealth from the richer among us to the poorer and the less fortunate. Excellent healthcare is by definition re-distributional."
~Donald Berwick
It really is. I had someone tell me I don't have it rough now a days going to college because I have a car and do fun things. Well, pretty much 98% of those fun things I don't pay for. And I have to have a car. Back in the 70s and 80s I'm pretty sure it was a lot easier to go to college full time, work full time, live on your own and still be able to pay pretty much everything off. It was at least possible at Michigan State University because I was able to get the numbers and do the math. Now a days working full time at minimum wage doesn't even cover tuition depending on where you go.
