Every politician ignores the real issues and distracts us with their cry baby bickering across party lines. It's not the republicans faults, or the democrats faults, it's fault of every citizen of this country, and if our leaders don't have the ability to take responsibility for their failures then there is no hope for our country. They need to lead by example morally.
Well, speaking as a poor person. Me and my families lives and financial situation have significantly improved since obama took office.
Whether or not you think its because of obama is yours to argue, but I go with out food a lot less (I can't even recall once in recent memory).

It was probably George Bush, but I'd be interested to know what program helped you.

Medical, Id describe more but its really to specific for me saying over the internet. But we get help now with bills that are pretty damn huge for the medicine alone, let a lone the treatment. :shrug
tl;dr I don't want to say the program, because this is just pretty sensitive information.
And idk whether or not my actions of not working on purpose so we can qualify are all the legitimate (although I always assume it is since I'm a full time student).
Idk I might be paranoid but its just nothing I'd risk losing. My education would very possibly be at stake, because I wouldn't leave home if my parents weren't getting by. And its kinda the only way for me to know I'll always have a job, thank god for the constant growing demand for education.

I'm glad you found a way to get some assistance whatever it may be (state or federal)
My parents would be over their heads in medical debt had the hospital my mother stayed in not pretty much given her a 100g's in health care cost free (that's with health insurance)
Getting sick in these times is scary prospect.

In the old days you get sick and die so expensive or not it is still an "improvement". Medical care ain't cheap though that is for sure.

Only the rich deserve to live anyway. It's social Darwinism.

I agree to a point. Can't always a coddle the little man as harsh as it seems. The strong will survive. Used to be the physically strong. Now it is the financially strong.

When the time comes for the physically strong to crush the financially strong, I'll be there on the side of whomever pays the most.

the problem is that the legislation doesn't actually solve the underlying issues with health care and does nothing to address the issue of rising health care costs. It's just shifts around who covers those costs
