I work at a hotel and I had a guest discussing the health care plan with me the other day. His son was born premature and was having problems breathing. He luckily made it through everything but was still a sick little guy for several years. The doctors didn't know what was wrong with him. The family didn't have healthcare and were soon in debt. They lost their home and their vehicles and were living with friends just to pay for his hospital stay. Eventually, the doctors realized that during one of the son's many procedures a medical device was left inside of him which had been a huge factor in his ongoing health problems. They sued, had all his bills magically dissappear and are now happily wealthy still hard working people. He told me he doesn't want to pay for someone who i tsoo lazy to get off their butt and work to get their health care. I told him that I don't want to talk to him about it. I want to talk to the young man whos son was so sick that they had given their whole life up to even attempt to pay for his care. That person wouldn't dream of saying something like that. If there was a homeless crack addicted man who needed insulin treatment, take it out of my check, I would be happy to help some other person LIVE. I work over 40 hrs a week and my job offers health care. Here it is : I can pay 600 dollars a month for one person and if I fall below 32 hours a week EVER i am dropped. The only people I ever see screaming and parading around their message about how against it they are are the people who aren't affected by the lack of. I hope one day we'll have something in place to help people. This ad is ridiculous and it doesn't even scare me anymore let them show it. It can be a nice reflection on how we treated other people when future civilizations look back at our legacy.

When going to that page it says its asking for donations to get it put on air. Does that mean it wasn't banned but that they just didn't have the funds to pay for its airing??
