N8ivWarrior: The Walking Miracle

And a little over the edge.

The Walking Miracle

Published Tuesday, September 16, 2008 by N8ivWarrior | E-mail this post

A co-worker/friend of mine and his fiance were brutally attacked in Chicago celebrating her birthday. She was weeks away from getting medical insurance with a new job and they are asking for help. They put together a website about the story and donations:

Please help them if you can.

I have a few comments on this. The charges for this blatant attack on innocent people have been upgraded to attempted murder which is good. Unfortunately, taxpayers will be paying for their food, clothing, television, play time, bedding, housing, legal services, medical and dental care.

The people who committed the crime and placed the innocent woman in the hospital missing 14 teeth and nearly losing her life, get free health and dental care. Meanwhile the woman who nearly lost her life has over $100,000 in medical bills so far and will likely have another $100,000 added to it.

Well, of course that makes sense. Reward the criminal, persecute the victim. How messed up is a country that has this type of social health system. People who are bucking the idea of a social health care system need to wake up and realize, we already have one (actually more if you count the military) in place and it is working for the criminals instead of the people paying their taxes and working for a living. People can be productive members of society and earn minimum wage and not be able to afford healthcare at up to two times their weekly income.

Second, please send money, prayers and good juju to Joe and Jen. They need all of the help they can get.
