This is just disgusting. Honestly. They say Obama is a terrorist because “It’s in his bloodline”, and “Listen to his name!”. These people shouldn’t be allowed to vote.
If I were to try and make that be a true, full size representation of the money, the image would literally need to be one million by one million pixels. Or over one million megapixels. Whoa.
To put that in perspective, the standard LCD screen is 72dpi, so the screen would literally need to be almost 120,000×120,000 inches, or almost 2 by 2 miles to display the image at it’s full size. At least, if my math is correct.
For a while I’ve been reading, watching, and hearing about America’s broken health care system. It’s privatized, which is showing that the system simply doesn’t work. Why is priority being given to certain citizens, just because of their social status? It really makes no sense. Why should a CEO earning millions of dollars a year be allowed to receive expensive surgery, when a person working at Wal-mart for minimum wage cannot? I don’t have an answer, although the Republicans will try to tell you something along the lines of…
“Well, the CEO obviously worked harder to get where he is now, so he should be given priority.”
Let me tell you why this is absolute crap. First off, how do you know one person worked harder? Oh right, stereotypes. You’re assuming that the CEO is working 12 hours a day, and the Wal-mart employee obviously slacked off in school.
Most of the time this simply isn’t true. What if the Wal-mart employee got straight A’s, but his parents couldn’t afford to send him to collage, so he had to get a joe job? Hmm. Not so fair now, is it?
I’m not saying that everything should be perfectly equal. No, not at all. The wealthier can obviously afford more amenities, such as first class flights, expensive cars, etc. Healthcare should simply not be considered a privilege, it should be considered a right.
The government should level the playing field, so people can concentrate on providing for their family, not “how will I pay if I get injured”.
Another thing that blows me away is how scared most Americans are of the word “Socialized”. Get over it already. You’re not going to turn into The Soviet Union or something.
The root of the matter is, America already has many socialized programs. The Postal Service, Fire departments, schools, the list goes on. “I’m sorry m’am, we can’t put out your housefire because you don’t have a FMO (Fire Maintenance Organization). We’re going to have to let it burn, or you need to pay us $10,000″.
Sort of sounds like extortion, eh? What makes health care any different? What about schools? Are you going to stop sending poor students to school because they can’t afford it, like what they do in Africa? Didn’t think so. What about the USPS? Can’t recieve letters if you can’t pay the monthly fee to receive them?
Please get over your fear of the word Socialized. You’ll live a much better life then you do now.
