THOSE WHO FORGET THE LESSONS OF HISTORY

As an American who has been unable for the past twelve years to have Private Health Insurance because of a Brain Injury I sustained from a car accident when I was eight years old,, I am APPALLED at the level of resistance Justice In Health Care has gotten from The Republican Party, who claim to be Pro Life. Am I and others with less than perfect Health Histories not alive because of our Health Histories? Or simply because we have already been born? If not, how can Republicans not want us to to have descent, basic Healthcare at an affordable rate and still call themselves "Pro Life"? Of course, since The Supreme Court thankfully Ruled most of The PATIENT PROTECTION And Affordable Care Act Constitutional, those of us whose financial circumstances allow us to purchase Health Insurance on the open Market can now obtain coverage through The Federal Exchange even in States like Texas that did not create their own exchanges. However, since The Supreme Court foolishly and wrongly Ruled that The Medicaid Expansion could not be something States are compelled to do and Texas and several other Republican Controlled States have foolishly and wrongly, in every possible sense of the word, opted not to expand Medicaid, people who did not qualify for Medicaid under the old system but are not financially able to purchase Private Coverage are still out of luck. How can people who allow this to happen possibly call themselves Pro Life? It is time for Republicans across the country to get their heads out of their asses, realize that THE PATIENT PROTECTION And Affordable Care Act is the law and is here to stay, realize they were wrong to oppose it in the first place and stop fighting a battle they have already lost and lost because they were and are WRONG in every possible sense of the word. Otherwise, history has shown there is only so long people will tolerate oppression,see every revolution in history and take note, Rick Perry and other Republican Governors and Legislatures across the country.
