Sad and Depressed

I continue to be extremely sad and depressed about the sheer amount of greed in this country. The outrageous opposition to any possible meaningful health care reform in the American body politic is getting to be a bit much and it's starting to really disappoint me.

I think most Americans may not "get" the full details of what is possibly being proposed, but that has nothing to do with my disappointment.

My disappointment stems from the lack of generosity people have in this fucking country. The bottom line is simple: Those who have health care insurance are not willing to give a little to those who have nothing. People like to say they give to charities, they would help their neighbors, but they won't help the neighbor they can't see.

I have always thought the average American was/is a complete moron. So, my opinion of them has never been high. They are like hyped-up-on-hormones teenagers. They think that a serious health incident will never happen to them, and if it does, their insurance will cover them: All facts contrary to the truth.

But, this is beginning to hit a new low. It's sad, depressing, and incredibly pathetic.
