I'm not a big fan of democrats at all, but I hope everybody realizes that for actually caring about your fellow human beings, and putting the well being of everybody over oneself the USA just potentially took a gigantic step back.
Of course if your a fan of looking after number one, knifing your fellow citizens in the back if it will help you, and selfishness you are probably happy, especially if you already got yours.
To be honest, I never had enough hope for my country or my fellow countrymen to think something as right as universal government run health care, like almost every other decent industrialized nation in the world has, could ever really come to pass, and that was from the beginning. I always hoped and thought it might happen, but deep down inside I knew the probably outcome. It’s just too sane and logical a thing to do, and it's not like the people in this country actually care about what's in the best interest when their is rhetoric to listen to. The people of this country have had no trouble letting the rich, businesses, and elite rule them like kings for years now even when it’s not in their best interest, why would they change now? The sickness that is greed has become like a cancer that is so far advanced in us it's now impossible to remove and it will eventually **** us. I saw it then. I see it now. I can only hope that someday peoples eyes will be opened before they see that all the toys they have collected won’t mean anything when the society they are a part of starts crumbling around them from their actions, or they are the next on the list to get screwed and people don’t help them because they been made to be put in a situation where they can’t or in a sense of poetic irony, they are just like they were, and don’t care.
