You're all doing your hardest to paint me like an asshole. You don't decide what I think is enough. Being in pain is not enough. Having granite countertops is more than enough. My point is that I don't want my economic value leeched to buy your dog treats while I can't afford my own dog's treats, but everyone's hospital trips should be covered.
Nobody is trying shit. If anything you're playing a victim card and making yourself look like an idiot.
Who says you would buy anything for anyone, by the looks of it you don't like sharing and I'm surprised you'd even buy treats for a dog. What a stupid thing to say.
Shared healthcare should be for everyone. Including yourself when you'd need it. But when that happens I trust you will grab that victim card again and start moaning about how nobody is helping you.
I'm not playing victim. I'm playing "not your coddler." I never said a damn thing about healthcare. Obviously everyone should have healthcare. Quit putting words in my mouth you fucking troll.
There are a couple people asking what exactly you are saying in your initial post. This whole thread is about healthcare.
Oh what the heck. I didn't get notifications for those, but for the other replies in my inbox. I suppose I should elaborate up there. Or people can scroll down. People hear enemies in disagreements where there are no enemies.
