Unfortunately this is most of the politics that drives health care in the USA. Most people in the US don't even get close to old age because they don't have access to adequate healthcare. Bill Gates is saving thousands of lives by

Lots of people love the american media. They usually believe it by reading news from one side of the political spectrum and confusing it with fact. Half of what I read is bull and the other half is shit.
