    True story.

    I was given a chance to talk to a bunch of high schoolers about volunteering at volunteer healthcare clinic.

    Most highschoolers ignored me. They had no idea what healthcare is. They think it is free.

    They feel invincible, as expected.

    I stressed the importance of volunteering because there are many people are uninsured and underinsured.

    One highschooler made a snide comment, “Everyone has insurance. Our family have Medicaid. It is free.”

    I hope life will treat her kindly.

    Sooner or later, the U.S. is going to have to face the reality that the only thing they should be seeing in a photo like that is a really good spot to have planted an improvised explosive device.

      Imagine having half the villains responsible in one room (the other half are their donors and largely present at fundraisers)

    step one. dress one to two dozen terminal patients who are about to die from lack of health coverage as ice agents. masked up.

    step two. arm them.

    step three. wait for next congressional hearing. when they are all gathered together.

    step four. uphold the second amendment.

    the diabetics can save the US from the 1 percent.

      Sort of off topic from your comment but the reason arming people to protect liberty doesn’t work is because the people crazy enough to kill others don’t care about liberty.

      Killing some old white dudes with other old people is not the tactic to rely on.

      You need the young and radicalized who are terminal.

      I wish, wish, wish I had faith in the system, checks and balances, and all that bullshit.

      Violence should only be used in self defense when violence is going to be used on you, or to protect other who can not protect themselves.

      Fascism, sadly, only seems to understand pain and suffering. I suppose a clean kill is more merciful than that, though I can’t say I condone it outright.

        my friend, this is self defense.

        they are about to kill millions of americans. through neglect, and theft of their hard earned tax dollars.

        again.

        you should feel no guilt when a small group of mass murdering psychopaths feel the wrath of universal karma. your conscience is clean.

          How come literally everyone misses the part where they’re getting rid of renewable energy and completely obliterating nature and the climate? It’s not just going to be millions of Americans. It’s going to be million and millions everywhere.

    Yankistanis will never reflect on their history and think their country was built for the rich, by the rich, from the very beginning. They still think it’s built on some humane “values”, lol.

    The values like genocide, racism, sexism, slavery, oppression, segregation, xenophobia, and neocolonialism.

    Useful fools.

      And send it to everyone diagnosed with a life-threatening illness that won’t be able to pay for treatment.

        I’m sure they already know who they are. Republicans have tried to kill those that depend on social safety nets for decades.

    I wonder what the combined financial net worth of this photo is because the calculation for the combined human value shown in this photo is easy

    That is zero

    Every single one of these people is a human rights violator and should be tried for such, along with being some of the most corrupt, hateful people in history.
