We don't Have Healthcare.... We Have Sick Care. America sucks!!

I'm poor, I do not have health Insurance, hell I can barely afford my car insurance.  It sucks to have to pay all this money for something that may or may not happen.  I only pay car insurance because it's illegal not too.  :)
In fact, for about 5 years I was so broke that I would only get insurance once a year (just to get tags) then just stop paying it.  Not saying it's right but we do what we have to do sometimes.  I have Hyperthyroidism and it is a pain in my ass.  I am not on medication because I do not have a doctor and couldn't afford the office visits and prescriptions.  I suffer daily, the weight fluctuation, the sweats, the chills, the passing out, the anxiety, the depression, the headaches.... I could go on and on.  I have learned to deal with it but the fact is, I shouldn't have to.  I am a good person, a tax payer, even a productive member of society.  I don't commit any crimes and consider myself to be a good human being.  I think my friends would agree.  Point is, I can't get help until I pass out and have to go to the emergency room.  That is my doctor, I have no choice.  I am not alone, it is sad the way our country treats it's family and that's what we should strive to be like.... more like a family that helps each other instead of watch them all suffer.  My disease is curable, but will they won't spend the money once to fix me forever, they wanna treat me repeatedly, knowing I don't have any money.  I call Bullshit.  I wish we had universal healthcare, we need it, our people are suffering and some even dying because they can't afford their medicines.  It's a sad sad country we live in.   I would move to Canada in a heart beat if I could.  They want to help their people not watch them slowly die.  Fuck America.  And before you get all pissed and say, "if you hate it so much, then move".... trust me, I would if I could.
