Subject: Re: The Dipped Finger Brigaide Author: No name [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 16:48:34 02/05/05 Sat In reply to: Richard Anderson 's message, "Re: The Dipped Finger Brigaide" on 15:19:09 02/05/05 Sat You aren't in a position to even KNOW what it's like to not be able to provide yourself or your children healthcare. How many single mothers with kids have to work a handful of part-time jobs (with no healthcare coverage) to make ends meet? What would you suggest they do when their kids get sick? How many college grads have to go without healthcare until they even get a job that provides it? How about the independent farmers who can hardly make their mortgage payments and keep food on the table, let alone pay for health insurance? How about the employees of small businesses who put in the time, but their business can't afford to offer healthcare coverage? When's the last time you worked for minimum wage, Richard? When's the last time you worked minimum wage for a small business w/out healthcare coverage? It happens. Your arrogance in assuming that people can "choose" not to be in this situation is galling. It shows your life of priviledge has you out of touch with the working class that struggles to make ends meet. And your statement about Fox News shows why you're views are so badly skewed.
