Obama Care vs Republicans

[Undertoad]

Saying that mental health issues should be covered, because every few months one person is so deeply affected that they begin killing people, or getting in their way, or even just making them uncomfortable or sad, is offensive.

Let me put it another highly personal way. Claudette's illnesses* should have been covered by treatment because:

A) She may kill a bunch of people.
B) She may affect** other people, such as richlevy.
C) It could have saved her life, which most of us would have given any amount to do, and is the right and humane approach for all of society.

Don't you think that answers A and B are offensive?


*She had three terminal diseases: cancer, addiction, and depression. The one that was covered was the most expensive to cover, but saved her life. Of course it also has excellent survival rates compared to the others. But that's because it's the one society decided to focus on.

**Actually I have to assume this means more than making you uncomfortable or sad.
