had to take my four year old to the #EmergencyRoom last night for a sudden intense headache, and now I get to look forward to a thousands-dollar bill for a two hour visit. even with employer sponsored #healthinsurance the #medicalBills in this s**thole country quickly rack up. but by all means, keep voting for Republicans who oppose #universalHealthcare, who continue to make things ever easier for #bigPharma to rake in money while people who can't afford cancer treatments or insulin die in the streets, while they rob women of bodily autonomy and force them to carry r*pist's babies, even when those babies don't develop vital organs, or place the mother's life in immediate danger, and of course those same repubs consistently vote against any assistance for those same babies AFTER they're born--to say nothing of doing all they can to make it easier and easier for some cis white male to buy guns and shoot up an elementary school the next day... yes, vote for those same repubs who LITERALLY TODAY just voted to cut #VeteranBenefits, because being the country that pays the most for #healthcare yet has worse results than many other countries that DO pay to keep their citizens healthy makes total sense 🙃
