And yes losing your life savings or your home to pay for healthcare is being penalized, 60% of all bankruptcy's are attributed to healthcare expenses. And if you get sick and can't work you lose your health insurance, then you lose your savings, next comes the home, these are people that work, not the losers on welfare or won't work, these are productive members of society, the dregs of society, those that live on government handouts only make up less than 1% of the population, everyone else is struggling to make their way in this world.
I like the way you guys always need a Boogieman! It's always something,
Liberal, Communist, Socialist, terrorist, the only way you can make your argument is to try and scare the un-educated, you're going right along with your play book, Hitler did know how to scare the public!

Are you trying to tell me that is not the liberal mind set, always a victim, must blame society.If the shoe fits. Nothing wrong with a label if its accurate. And you say big business is the Boogieman, the bad guy.You throw out these statements with no connecting thought, where did I or "you guys" (by the way is "you guys" better than saying conservative, or is that politically incorrect?)try to scare people, its the big B.O. that is saying everything in this country is broken and without his saving effarts {sp intentional} we are doomed and everything must be
changed right this second.

NOW MAY I SAY THAT I AM ONE OF THE unfortunate ones that has had health problems and out of work. Out of no where a pain started in my right thigh, long story, and no plot, I spent over two months in the hospital, in rehab hospital twice for total of 3 weeks, have had 4 surgeries, septic knee/Osteomilitis in right femur. Docs have know idea how I got it, usually its after an operation, I had none prior to illness. First operation in May of 08, walking with cane in Nov 08 and the leg broke, so back to hospital insert rod in leg,now the snap,crackle,and pop in the morning is not my cereal. NO ONE to blame for my illness, I'm not penalized by society, Out of work for over a year. I am not angry at any one, although I went to the emergency room at Cleveland Clinic,which was just rated 4th best hospital in US, 7 times in two weeks for the increasing pain that was unbearable, and they told me they couldn't find anything wrong, don't come back we don't treat chronic pain in the ER. Came to the point I couldn't walk and ambulance came to house to to take me to hospital,my systems were shutting down temp of 102after 6 weeks they found the problem and operated twice in the matter of a few days.Was on three antibiotics for 5 months Another surgery about a month ago.
Society doesn't owe me anything, its not a penalty, ITs LIFE.To be penalized is to be a victim. Soon I will be back to work, I'm grateful,although the Clev Clinic dropped the ball the other hospital did great. I'm not a victim of society, I consider myself fortunate. Its been rough, but big deal. I agree with Thomas Paine "Government at its best is a necessary evil"
