Sad story, but worse will happen with socialized healthcare and to a lot more people. My prays go to Mrs. Hough's family regarding her loss but her stand about socialized healthcare is wrong. Remember Communism sounded great on paper too. People have forgotten history & think "Social Studies" is the new history. We need to educate & inform ourselves.
@GadsdenChicago First of all, Fuck You very much. Second of all, fuck your dog, too! Now that the pleasantries are out of the way, stick your rattlesnake flag up your ass and whistle Dixie!
@GadsdenChicago In Sweden we have free healtcare, and sure, there is alot of queues , the taxes are high as well, but the funny thing is, that actually, it doesn't really matter since everyone know that we have to pay this high price wich enable us to adopt. Sweden has had a mixed economy for a long time, bot does that makes us a poor, undemocratic miniature-image of lets say Soviet Russia (since u brought up Communism)? absolutely not! Do yourself a favour, get ridd of the cold-war propaganda.
@greenlawnmover I love it when dumb-as-shit Kochsucking Teabaggers get their filthy double-speak bullshit called out by the very people they think they're talking about. I'll bet this drunken wife beater, Gladass, has never been out of the country
@GadsdenChicago I suggest that you educate & inform yourself too, because to compare or even link "socialized" health care to communism is just dumb. Communism and socialism aren't and never have been the same thing! In Belgium, we have free health care too, and that in no way hurts the people more than to get rejected at a hospital when you need medical assistance. How could it? And how could anybody defend a system where people are denied necessary medical assistance because of money?
I am truly sorry for the smart and educated Americans who have to endure this stupid regime. Lack of education, greed, religious extremism is what will bring the country to their knees.
But hey, if you guys are fed up, come to Canada. We got plenty of space, plus we have a true universal health system. It is expensive, true, but aberrations like what we see in this video never happen.
@CubsFanJohn That is a good question. Midge and her family explored all of their options in their frantic attempts to keep their daughter in-law alive. They ran afoul of system safeguards that they admittedly disregarded when things became dire for their loved one. Many people swear they would move Heaven and Earth for their family and breach any obstacle to save a life.
The health care professionals who "handled this case" are legally justified in letting Jenny die. That's the problem.
I understand your point but in IL when you are pregnant and you don't have Insurance you go on Medicare. Heck even from what I am told most OBGYN offices have that number.
@CubsFanJohn Once again, those are all good points. I understand your consternation at the realization that some time the system kills. Everyone who knew and came into contact with Jenny, including the hospital staff and administrators, tried their very best to do whatever could be done. The decisions that doomed Jenny's life were made by people in offices far removed from the sound of beeping monitors, the smell of antiseptic and the imploring eyes of family and friends.
@CubsFanJohn Medicare is federally funded. Medicaid is the state provision, and option given to 'some' in need, but ONLY IF the income is FAR below poverty level. I'm a disabled ICU RN, now living on $1300/month. I have medicare, which pays ~80% of 'approved' expenses. I do NOT qualify for ANY STATE help, ie Medicaid, UNTIL I have spent $550 each MONTH on medical expenses! (what about groceries?) I once made $75 k/yr, but now a fraction of that, and can't receive the care I GAVE OTHERS!
@susandellgun Thank you for your first hand knowledge, Susan. Our "friend" has been trying to demoralize us with some sort of rationalization for the lose of human life. How he looks at himself in the mirror each morning while holding such disregard for his neighbors is beyond me.
No one qualifies for government assistance until they have been "down and out" for a period of time, NO ONE! As for Medicare, the general rule is age 65 and up or if you're in kidney failure for a set period of time. If you have a job that offers health insurance, great. But if you lose your job, most people can't afford the cost of COBRA and they certainly cannot afford the cost of an independent plan. The ER will treat the bare minimum only. But you can't get heart surgery, etc.
@afghanmanyeah I watched your video and got nostalgic. Many were the first few hours of my weekend liberty spent high-porting a parade Garand (quite like yours, but chromed) around the quad instead of taking the first ferry to Delaware as a USCG Seaman Recruit at Cape May, NJ.
@afghanmanyeah Mr. Survivalist, tell me about how your health care needs are met? Do you get your health care through work? (government program of tax incentives) Do you get VA coverage? (direct government provided) Do you buy your own own through a professional organization? (probably like the first case) Or will you be healthy forever and never die?
Ah man, I kept waiting for this annoying bitch to get punched in the face or kicked...never happened. They should of made it clear that it was a video about her whining about others having 1st amendment rights. And her lying for her commie cause.
First, you've been blocked from ever posting here again. What did you expect? Second, you have a grand total of 2 subscribers and 1 friend over the period of one year on YouTube. Bravo.Papercutters, eh? Fascinating, it would seem. Lastly, how would you like your wife called a bitch? Your daughter? Your mother, bitch! Do you enjoy violent language? Stop by if you are ever in Chicago, tough guy. I've got some choice words for you.
you're all dead to the world... this woman did nothing sensational. i undarstand her daughter is dead and that i am very sad about. no one should be dying.. however to think our government should prevent that is foolish. save money bitch and then you coulda saved your daughter.... oh right the government took your taxes so you couldn't prevent it! wake up! the government did this to you and they cant fix it either!! its not about red vs blue... its about the ppl vs the government dipshits!
I wish I could click thumbs up millions of times for this. Jennifer should not have died. It's a tragic story, and an example of what people are going through on a regular basis.
This woman (Midge) is a psychopathic, elitist narcissist, machiavellian. Not so great acting, but give her an award. It was a dead give away when she said she wanted the whole world to have health care that she is a NWO socialist commie fool. I guess whole world health care wont be hard after the psychopaths kill off 80 plus % of the population. Get sick cant work, they just kill you, your not a asset to them. Just cattle and sheep in line for culling. To hear her cries get in line fools baaaah
@Midnightse7en You should read "The Prince" by Machiavelli and maybe you would understand what the term means how it is applied. I also can't figure out what is "elitist" about anything she is saying. Attacking the educated and the "elite" is the first thing Mao, Hitler, Pol Pot and a host of other dictators did.
So this is why the left doesn't report the Tea Party dude who was...what?...shouted down? so loudly his face ended up "attacking" the shouter's fist. If we turn this around to a lone conservative entering a lib rally ,stating his beliefs, then shoving and punching one of the libs in the face, I'm sure he'd wind up his day at the morgue. Your definition of violence is "I don't agree with you". So dog, you barked, therefore you attacked.
When we must decide between food and shelter or insurance what are we to choose? Live in card board boxes and eat out of dumpsters? Die in our own beds from diseases that are treatable or even preventable bc we need housing and to eat? It's time to do something. We can't wait any longer.
I'm just to pissed at Tea Baggers for shit like this to make a rational comment about them. But I can say Midge Hough's story needs to be shared with everyone. Favorite this vid. Share it with people who are undecided on this issue. The vast majority of uninsured and under-insured are not there out of laziness. People need to see that.
@Nohname1 im not insured but i dont think the government can fix it. we need a true economy not backed my fiat money and for certain not a government take over. that goes against anything our constitution is. we need to dismantle regulation and let our people fend for themselves. at least then we'll actually know who are the true USA citizens not abusing the system. bailouts = troubled america
Give 'em Hell Midge. The criminals running the insurance companies need to be charged with murder, convicted, and hung in the public square. We need an insurance revolution and the public option is the way to do it.
Sad story, but worse will happen with socialized healthcare and to a lot more people. My prays go to Mrs. Hough's family regarding her loss but her stand about socialized healthcare is wrong.
