In all the debates over President Obama's health-care changes, I have yet to hear (except once on PBS) any comment about the 20,000 people who die in this country every year because they developed a condition or disease that needed treatment and there was no one to pay for it, so it went undone.
If you read the Bill of Rights, you will see that these people had a guaranteed right to life that was denied them or ignored, if you will, because of the totally messed up condition of this medical system that one certain party does not really want to change, for obvious reasons.
I want you to realize that this fouled up system costs 20,000 Americans their lives every year.
