Half of my homepage on facebook is lit up by this status:
"No one should die because they cannot afford health care, and no one should go broke because they get sick."

48. This is the response from the other side....
No one in this country should go thirsty because they cannot afford cold micro-brewed beer, and no one should go hungry because they cannot afford the spicy buffalo wings you need to eat with the cold micro-brewed beer you are drinking. If you agree, please post this as your status.




Responses to this one anybody?

I was thinking...

No Person should go thirsty because they cannont afford clean water, and No Person should go hungry because they cannot afford food. If you agree, please post this as your status.

5. Added it to mine and Mom did hers.
Although, my Mom is my only friend on Facebook, so it's not all that beneficial on my end. :P

16. I prefer the version I posted on Facebook:
"I believe that no one should die because they cannot afford health care, and nobody should go broke because they get sick. I also believe that no one should die. Except for certain people."

the anti-reformers in the gut.

39. Yeah, someone on my friend's page just posted a comment like "What about people who
do things that make themselves sick? Do they deserve our money?" Oy vey.

This is what I want to reply:

Maybe folks who have never done ANY of the following can get an exemption: smoke, drink, drive over the speed limit, eat things they shouldn't, skip the gym, skip regular check-ups, use drugs, drive while taking on their cell phone, forget to use a seatbelt, forget to look before crossing the street, have sex. Everyone else does *something* that can make them sick or get themselves injured.

43. Check out President Obama's Facebook status tonight!
http://www.facebook.com/barackobama?ref=mf

'Encouraged to see this going around today: "No one should die because they cannot afford health care, and no one should go broke because they get sick. If you agree, please post this as your status for the rest of the day." '

It's viral folks. The best thing I have ever seen on Facebook.
