This is what we need more of! It is a shame that the greed and lack of compassion (Glenn Beck) of the Repubs have kept the Government from having our backs. I just had an Uncle who was a Korean war veteran die because he was too proud to ask us for help and the government was deducting from his $900 a month social security check (his only income) the cost of his prescriptions. He died from malnutrition and cancer because he could not go to a doctor because of the cost. The nearest VA hospital was 100 miles away. The government had his back alright, they had a knife in it!
