    Someone in another thread said that they believe in the free market for health insurance. I simply cannot believe in a free market in an industry that bankrupts people in exchange for health.

    No one should have medical debt. Period.

    I wish we could decide where our taxes go to and we’d get the benefits. I’d like healthcare, education, infrastructure for starters. Repubs can pay for their own wars and get horrible water and dumb kids.
