I have exactly zero patience on the topic of healthcare today.
This is what I don’t get in this argument. Are we supposed to just die because we were born with a chronic condition?
Okay, brief history lesson. In the 1910-1920’s, The American government conducted a series of eugenics experiments to put together the “perfect” American. Blue eyes, moderate weight, no history of hysteria (in women,) etc.
These experiments were funded by the Rockefeller and Carnegie families and the mass production company Johnson & Johnson. Tens of thousands of women and men were sterilized without their knowledge because genetic diseases and chronic illnesses. The government and those paying for this “research” deemed those with chronic illnesses to be lesser.
Fast forward to Nazi Germany, and guess why they’re doing?
Fast forward again to the 1940-1970 when the US government experimented on Veterans and Puerto Rican’s. Experimental treatments that were inhumane at best. Mass sterilization of PR women.
This health bill is so important because this is happening AGAIN. This is eugenics, plain and simple. The government and those supporting this bill see those with pre-existing conditions as lesser. Unworthy of existence. And if they can’t breed is out, they’re going to find another way to kill us.
Fuckin hell, she’s right.
