        Something has to be done. I was one of the lucky ones that beat Cancer. But there are so many that aren't as lucky. God bless.

        If Trump and Ryan have their way, you won't even get diagnosed in the U.S., unless you are wealthy.

        Got to be wealthy to afford an Obamacare policy. That is if it's even sold in your area.

        Yes, Trump and congress are sabotaging the system. Also, before Obamacare, it was much worse.

        Uhh NO it was NOT worse before Obamacare. The middle class could actually afford health ins. Not anymore. And Trump and Congress has passed nothing re healthcare, how could they even affect it? Insurers lose money in it, prems are exorbitant.

        Before OCare, people working for unionized industries and some government agencies had coverage, but non-union working poor did not.

        when they couldn't kill them off with ebola, they tried cancer -- what are they going to do next when cancer doesn't kill them?

        They travel to Africa and spread around cancer germs so blacks get it? Do you know how insane you are?
