True story.

I didn't have medical care (insurance) for 7 years. I could not get any medical care as I also didn't have any money. I finally get medicare and find out I had a mass the size of a basket ball in my gut. The surgery cost medicare 35 thousand dollars for a 3 day stay in a private room. I paid $400 in copay. Without insurance I would have died. I can not for the life of me understand how giving people the access to healthcare is a bad thing.
