    And when he is an adult, he too will be impoverished with a lifetime of medical bills. Our country is broken.

    Imagine how nice this place could be if conservatives wanted nice things too.

      Hey, if he’s “lucky,” he can get disability!

      I was on disability for two years. I got a grand total of $14,000 after it was determined that 60% of my ability to work would be affected by my (since mitigated) nerve disorder. Apparently being able to work at 40% capacity means I needed to get a job. I’m sure they would have loved me screaming in pain in whatever office.

      Also, I got that $14,000 after the fact due to the legal system being so swamped.

      Thanks, Republicans.
