Man robs bank to get medical care in jail - Yahoo! News (http://news.yahoo.com/s/yblog_thelookout/20110621/ts_yblog_thelookout/man-robs-bank-to-get-medical-care-in-jail#mwpphu-container - broken link)

Look into this mans eyes who HAS worked (he ain't some lazy ass) for 17 years and then found another job after that. That didn't cut it and he had to go to these drastic measures.

Is THIS what America has come too? Is this what we have come too? We can afford to give trillions to worthless trash countries that hate us like Israel, Iraq, Afghanistan to rebuild their schools, roads, hospitals, "spread democracy" , but we can't do this for our own people?

Do it for the USA and the right gets their panties in a wad and scream SOCIALISM as if they knew what the **** it meant.

The right wing Republicans who like to proudly proclaim that we are a Blessed Christian nation "under God" really have no clue, do they? Is this what Christ wanted? Is this what any god or goddess or whatever entity you believe in wants?

I don't know about you but why are we the only country in the first world status that doesn't have proper health care? Never mind Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh's nonsense screaming that we have the best health care system in the world. Yeah, we do if you're rich, a dirty politician or if you're an illegal leeching off welfare.

If we were going to spend trillions on stupid things like war and dirty useless countries, why didn't we just help our nation? Trillions of dollars would have educated many of OUR citizens, rebuilt OUR hospitals, roads and most of all, given ALL OF US BASIC HEALTH CARE.

Un-****ing-believable.
