FR: People Died Because Of "Bad New Orleans Health System"

"Interestingly, Fox has been interviewing people at the Astrodome. One doctor said that many of these people have not been seen by a doctor in YEARS, if ever. They are dealing with hypertension, congestive heart failure, diabetics, etc. Doctor on now saying they need insulin and congestive heart failure meds.

Seems to me we also are seeing evidence of a complete failure of the New Orleans public health system.

Fox commentator said in some ways the peope in the Astrodome are BETTER OFF, because they are finally getting medical care!

but whose fault is that??

:shrug:

YEAH RIGHT!

:grr:

In The United States Of America? Wow, who knew?

National Health Care. :eyes:

are telling us we should have had a magnificent and efficient public funded health care system. Next they'll be saying we should have had public transit out of town to evacuate everybody!

Say, what a great idea!That sort of thing is right down the Democrats' alley. I hope a bunch of freepers come over to our side and help us get it done!

in terms of availability and accessibility of quality health care have contributed to nearly a million deaths in the last decade.

Let me see if I can find the paper published in the American Journal of Public Health last year and post the abstract.

The tragedy in New Orleans has ripped the facade off the social inequalities in this country. Social inequalities that policies advocated by freepers have created.

that Hitlery Clinton put in place? That's what killed all those people! :silly:

Where have these idiots been? Haven't they seen the devestating cuts to social services - including Public Health - since Bush assumed power?

IF they are getting BETTER healthcare at the Astrodome, WHY is this? Hmmmm? Tell us why this is fucking elitist bigot freepers!! I'm waiting!!

Compassionate conservatives my ASS - what a nonsequitur.



...and WHY if these people were sick weren't they evacuated FIRST - oh, that's right, only wealthy white bigots get evacuated - poor people with no cars or the infirmed should die due to natual selection RIGHT Mr. right-wing bigot?

Jack asses...

in order to save a couple bucks?

Anyone think that free markets/private enterprise is going to treat anyone who just lost everything in a disaster and is now in a refugee camp?

you know what they will say so why fucking bother to even read their vomit? what a fucking waste

They lack ethics, compassion, and reason. Ostracize them.

in a very poor black neighborhood, tie them to a post and have a loud speaker replay the shit they spout at FR.

Then sit back and watch the fear overwhelm them to the point of breaking down. Their disconnect to reality really needs to be shattered in a very crude fashion.

Their may never be divine intervention for such filth.
