It's been going on here in AZ for a few years. My friends son has autism and asthma and received state aid. They raised the bar for autism so he can't get the help he needs and my friend and her husband work 5 jobs between them to pay for the kids expenses. (one job is my friend volunteering at school to help with his tuition) Their son's inhalers are $230 a month, the state stopped paying for them so now he's in the emergency room 2x a month.

And Phoenix just GAVE 99 MILLION to the Chicago Cubs for a training camp here. GAVE! The city won't see a return on investment for 30 years.

Politics just plain suck. I'm NOT sticking up for the guy in office now, just sayin' they're ALL unfortunately uncaring, self-serving jerks. It would be nice to say "I wish it were like the old days", but I grew up during Viet Nam, so I can't.

The US is only 37th from the bottom of 191 countries in health care quality. How much worse do they want to make it before we all stop waving flags and bragging about how great we are and get down to work fixin' whats broke?
