The drug and insurance companies are the devil I currently know and despise. I have no idea if a public option would be better, but I am personally, and literally, desperate for a change. I'm one of those slip-through-the-cracks cases - I work three or four part time jobs, have no coverage, and as of a couple of months ago, could no longer afford to carry myself. There is no question in my mind that the current system doesn't give a shyte if I cack it tomorrow (Am I really just supposed to just keep checking into the Emergency Room?- Am I really supposed to just shrug and accept that these are the breaks, and I deserve this for the poor choices I made earlier in life? Swell)
I'm SO ready for something different. My contributions to this topic would not be informed by impartiality and reason. I confess that I am worried and panicky. And not very hopeful either way the ball rolls. Those who support the status quo are welcome to try to talk me down.
