Debate and Discourse: AWESOME POST in "Scum Of The Insurance Industry Scum", by jacobkosh

Hacksaw has reported a post.

Reason:
This outraging story dovetails nicely with the outraging story of the family of the woman who died because she was denied coverage for a liver transplant getting flipped off by an insurance company's employees.

Huffington post link (yay this thread is a liberal echo chamber): http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/10/08/cigna-employee-flips-off_n_314189.html

I gotta say, if the anti-health care reform crowd wants to have a British/Canadian/French/whatever vs. American health care horror story-off, I think America wins by 1st round KO.

I'd say that this story makes me ill, but I worry that a future insurer might count that as a preexisting condition.

    Every fucking time I tune into the health care debate, I get another excuse to kill someone if I find myself in a certain situation. I don't just mean rage kills, I mean; judge lets me off and says, "Muthafucka really had it coming!"

    are you seriously offended by jokes about being uninsured? jokes that specifically mock the awfulness of the system that exploits people?

    He probably gets offended by jokes about AIDS or cancer or homos or black people or child molestation too, haha what a fag.

    I'm only partially joking.

    Politics cap

    ... They ate, slept and worked. Some of them found uninteresting partners at work who they married and came home to. Sometimes they would half-heartededly thrust into each other and children were made. They lived a middle class existence until their deaths to heart disease and cancer.
