I did that job for years between USMC and HVAC, hated it. Unstacking and restacking, my back hurts thinking about it. Either 120 degrees in the trailer or absolute zero

... realizing I'm taking about $2,250 in medication every week! Not every month. Not every year. $2,250 a freaking week! Po' as I am. Sweet Jezuz! If I were not so po' I wouldn't be able to afford my medication. I got a pill that's north of $20, per. One shot is $2,000. One shot is worth many times everything else I own. Note to all you would be home invaders: Check the refrigerator for meds. That's the real score. Sweet baby Jezuz!
Does this make me part of the problem?
To afford healthcare, you need to be either very wealthy or very poor.
You middle class, you working class. So much for your labors, wot?Visne explicare?Comment

I hope that you mean you are getting the care that you need. I'm so opposed to our so-called health care system I could spit. It's not about someone's health or the care they receive or need it's about who gets paid. -
Too early to tell about the shot. It's one of those 'could take up to' medicines. I have $24,000 worth of shots to go through before I can tell if they work. I'm half-way there and worse off than I was before.
As fucked up as those last two sentences are, it's pretty well true. Without some sort of insurance or cut-rate prescription plan, who the hell can afford $20 a day for a single pill? Even my best job wouldn't have covered something like that.
The US is the first and fifth largest economy in the world when you throw in California. But we're one that doesn't provide for the public health. Again, sorry to the working class. It's the poor and indigent who get the perks. Keeps us off'n the streets.
And vets. Vets got perks coming out of everywhere!
