Both women were hispanic.

The internet outrage mob ruins her life anyway.

What % of YOUR health, is eveyone else im the country's fault/responsibility/obligation to cover the costs on?

Mind you we've already had measures in place to care for the physically and mentally infirm for the past 50 years. We're talking about YOU and I here.

I dont even have insurance. Havent been able to afford it since ACA, and its cheaper to pay the penalty + buy anitbiotics from the aquatic supply store to keep in cabinet. Used to have comprehensive HMO for 93$/month before ACA with employer matching half.

They want $689 for same plan now and my own employer aint paying for it at all since its now cost prohibitive to offer said plan. He offers a shitty high deductible ppo plan now, that used to cost 35$/month without an employer match for 189$/month after employer pays half.

I'm sorry, I was too indirect. The government is people, it is funded by us. If it's job is to help people, then our job is to help people. How do you help people who destroy themselves with and without assistance you provide? (i know the answer, this is a exercise)

it's health care's job to help and assist people who need and want it to live. dunno where you got the idea that it's -my- job. and that's a difficult question, one we still struggle with that isn't easily answered. it would have to be on a case by case judgement call.
