living, or living berter lives, since the ACA became law in 2010. I know a number personally who are among them who have had their hearts eased by finally being recognized a people, and not by the size of their wallets. As I have said many times, their lives - and being alive - matters.
One example not covered by media:
The truth about the ACA, from 2010! What media refused to show!

Naturally, we don't know the stories of the millions grateful for the ACA. That was one family, photogenic and middle class, with something to lose.
There are millions who are not so situated, poor, disabled and always disadvantaged with chronic health problems, or unpopular diseases.
They had to make the decision of going to see a doctor but said no because it meant financial catastrophe including homelessness for their survivors. Or just because they knew after being sent away, they were not going to get help, no matter how they begged. Their lives were not valued more than money.
As a matter of policy, save some of our great, but aging bleeding hearts like Bernie, we've not been valuing the lives of people we don't know. And as I have said, there are many out there most people cannot imagine, and in many cases
don't want to know.
So they're hated or totally ignored. Obama holds a belief in the equality of all, even the unpopular, poor or considered to be of no economic use. I thank him and Bernie and all those like them who understand this truth..
Have a great New Year, ProSense, you certainly deserve it. Thanks.
