    Cherrypicking.

    The point is we are way better off than most nations on healthcare. You could be stuck in Russia where your medical options are get drafted to the front line and killed in your sleep by fellow soldiers over who gets the last soup.

      Sorry… how am I cherrypicking by proving my point that being poor doesn’t necessarily get you chemo?

      How does it prove your point that, “In America, you can get free coverage if you are broke enough?” Because it seems like it shows the exact opposite.

        You didn’t prove that chemo isn’t provided coverage, you provided select times where coverage doesn’t sustain long term.

        The claim was never all medical bills is covered in the USA.

        And that has nothing to do with what the previous commenter said that you quoted your response too.

        It’s nitpicking for holes in a statement made about the place where coverage is. Yall aren’t interested in solutions to “my old man’s back problems.” Yall are looking for a political point to bitch about to justify shitting on a cancer vaccine.

          Sorry, what does: “In America, you can get free coverage if you are broke enough” mean then?

          It means “In America, you can get free coverage for certain things if you are broke enough but for other things, unless you have money, too bad, you’re going to die?”

            I’m not going to write to a person that can’t read. You are literally demonstrating how you have to rewrite what was there to justify your idiotic responses.

            Nothing in that sentence is a 100% guarantee and it obviously opens up the door to needing more information to tell.

            That isn’t the comment you left your response to either, dipshit.

            I hope you get a chance to encounter uncurable cancer of your loved ones so you can have a little empathy for these moments.

              Hope no longer. Several of my loved ones have died of cancer. One because they couldn’t afford chemo. Which is why I know poor people can’t always afford chemo in the U.S.

              I hope you’re very happy about two of my grandparents and one of my cousins dying of cancer since you hoped for it to happen.

                Lmao, you’re so full of shit. What state did your grandparents die of cancer in and when?

                  Sorry, are you actually trying to get me to doxx myself because you think it’s such an unlikely thing that I have relatives who die of cancer?

                  Over half a million people die of cancer each year in the U.S. And you think I’m some sort of special person who has an entirely cancer-free family?

                  I’m also not sure why you hoped for me to have loved ones who died of cancer and when I told you that I did, you said I was lying about it. Isn’t that what you wanted for me?

                    I knew you were a fucking liar.

                    It’s doxxing to provide the details on the year of death of your grandparents?

                    Yea fucking right. You know the facts don’t back up your bullshit story and want to worm your way away from being responsible for your lies.

                    You claim there are so many deaths to cancer that it would be statistically impossible for you to avoid an encounter, while simultaneously claiming that saying the year and state that your grandparents died to cancer in would be specific enough to dox you.

                    The enemy is too powerful yet too weak, and all truths are lies, right?

                    The reality is that somebody related to you dying of cancer wouldn’t match up for what I wished on you. A sociopath like you who wishes against progress on cancer vaccines knows the words family but not their meaning.

                    Shut the fuck up.
