I don't know about you, but I have had it. As I said in my video in NYCeves diary
http://www.dailykos.com/... one of the reasons my husband killed himself had to do with health care costs.Not the ONLY reason but one of them. And right before his suicide I lost my job and health care for my family.
And I am still unemployed and paying for junk insurance for myself and my college age daughter.It made sense that BO would offer up in his stimulus Medicare for those of us unemployed and cannot afford Cobra The Senate version took this out ...Oh and the Senate version Senate had removed the House provision that would allow people 55 and over who are laid off to continue COBRA coverage at a subsidized rate until they're 65 and eligible for Medicare.
I WANT TO KNOW WHO IN THE SENATE TOOK THE ABOVE OUT OF THE STIMULUS PACKAGE!!!!!
I want what they have.Hell I want more than what they have. I want single payer universal.
But I am way past being polite about how we are going to get it. I have called my Congress Person and Senators. I have come forward with video about my husbands suicide and being unemployed.A lot of us are unemployed and our Senators have just kicked us to the curb.
The diary is short as I am so angry I am seething...
I am MAD AS HELL...
Are you mad as hell ???
And how are voices going to be heard that we are tired of being thrown bones of "health care reform"?
