Aaaand it's gone. Or was this sarcasm?

There's lots of people who would like to do the same, but in a world where so many people are trying to pay the bills and just make ends meet this is hard. If only they too were making more. Then they would be more able to go to mom and pops stores and pay a little more instead of needing to save that extra dollar at walmart so they can pay the rent or for their overpriced health care.

@jeffsullivan1926 Regarding, "How do you Americans deal with the stress of healthcare." I don't know. This is my horror story... I used to be young a long time ago. I was working hard... more than full time hours but was only officially "part time" so that they wouldn't have to offer me health insurance at my work when I started having pretty serious health issues. I was able to get the work done but as many americans did I was forced to file for medical bankruptcy to pay for the expensive procedure and week in the hospital because I didn't have health insurance. No doubt I should have had it myself but I guess I thought I was invincible and young enough that I'd be ok. I was wrong. At least it opened my eyes. At least then I knew better and was going to make sure I would be protected in the future. I didn't want to go without health insurance ever again. But now I had a "pre-existing condition" which meant that if I were going to get health insurance I was going to have to pay absolutely ridiculous rates. It's health care. Everyone needs it. No matter the age. No matter their stupidity for not going out and getting protected themselves... they need it. And we can give it to the people. We already pay TWICE as much as our northern neighbors per person for our system and theirs doesn't leave millions uninsured and produces better results (superior infant mortality rate and superior life expectancy). It's a fucking no brainer to the sane. But there are lots of people who get filthy rich off of the sick and they are able to buy our politicians. I sometimes wonder how they sleep at night. Probably on mattresses stuffed with cash.

@jeffsullivan1926 Regarding, "wow man, sorry to hear that" Thanks but it's nothing really to what some have to deal with. There are people who try to ration life saving medicine because they can't afford it among so many other crazy horror stories. This country is pretty messed up and it's been this way for some time. It's why the country was willing to elect a complete disgrace to the human race like trump after obama. They know this country needs to change direction. Sadly obama didn't bring it and they were willing to try anything that might possibly be change even thou they had no good reason to think trump was the answer. Hopefully we can get sanders in 2020 and start a new course for this country. It desperately needs it. Take care to you as well. Peace.
