hmm...
i just got done watching the movie sicko today.
i was never big on political topics. partly because i thought there was nothing i could do about it. i just needed to get by in my life, work hard and it would pay off. i have recently been growing more frustrated with thinking that i was doing good by going to college and getting a degree. Because a degree meant more money. more money means the better off you are.
now getting slammed with student loan payments that with making 1200 a month would leave me with a 100 a month left for food and other basic needs to get by, i was being completely fucked in the ass. on top of going more into debt for medical bills of my own that i could say i was actually slacking on my medical treatment to say the least. makes me even more pissed off at our country for this.
i dont even have words to say to explain how fucked up this is.. not just for me but for the people who have been more fucked than i in this situation.
and then to look at the other countries who have been thought as a shit hole 3rd world country. and their poeple are doing better than ours as far as medical treatment.
Makes me think that this country isnt as good as its made up to believe. Even more pissed at myself for being so ignorant in these topics. I never thought that one movie could open your eyes so much to beable to look at yourself and the other people that live around you to know that one day in your life the time will come when you know you have been abandoned by the people you put your faith that holds the power... your government...
sickening to say the least...
