I know someone who was a heavy equipment operator. Kidneys shot, not from cancer so he had no recourse. That is one of my problem with all these big sweeping government programs. They always fall short. They only help people who fit in a certain box, all other are screwed and can just keep paying taxes to help the others. People who were less needy benefitted from aid, while working class heroes were forgotten.
That is a big part of the issue.
WHO is in charge of how the money is used and making sure it is getting to those who need it.
I know a guy whose sinuses were destroyed from infection and he is now in fact disfigured from surgery (among many other problems) but no cancer.
Who is getting the checks!
