America has some very serious problems. This is partly an outgrowth of our lack of good healthcare policies at the national level. I find this so frustrating. No one seems to know what thread to pull to get these messes to start unraveling. The haves don't seem to understand that this is a bad thing to have going on in your back yard. Just because you are wealthy doesn't mean you are immune.

But people don't want to hear anything like that.

It's so frustrating because it isn't something we can't improve. It stays this way because of social inertia.
