[QUOTE="Deleted member 2897, post: 564978"] Well I mean, if I were diagnosed by cancer tomorrow, I would probably be in bad financial shape when it was over. But here is the good news. I am in the country with the best healthcare and best outcomes. I would be willing to pay whatever I could to not die. And I would ask for help, and try to get back to work again when I am done, and if I have to start over at ground zero with nothing...well at least I am still here. At least we have the technology to stand a fighting chance. There is no magic tree that grows millions of dollars for everyone if they have a cancer diagnosis, or a bad car accident or [fill in the blank]. Life is not and cannot be perfectly comfortable for everyone in this country all the time. It doesn't work that way. Its like (I'm not talking to you LJ, so please don't take this next comment the wrong way) people don't believe in God, they don't believe in charity, they don't believe in the goodness of other people, and the government is their God and should run and operate everything as some omnipotent being. And as long as there is at least 1 rich person, we have someone's money to take to help make it happen. Again, I am not talking to you, I just replied to your post on the debt comment, and then extended my post further in a different direction so please don't take it that way. I was just lazy and didn't want to post a separate comment, LOL. [/QUOTE]
