How do you boycott if that’s the manufacturer of the drug you need to stay alive?

I take 5 different heart meds, plus aspirin. I can't afford the prescriptions anymore, I've had to drop off of all of them. I get tired and winded easily but I'm still here, and there are behavior modifications that I'm working on to expand my capability beyond the bare minimum. I have a tiny bottle of Nitro tablets, which are reserved for scary wake-ups with chest pain that won't subside.

When I feel good, I feel better than I have in decades. When I feel awful, it's usually my own fault. I talk to God a lot. I try to do what I know I'm supposed to. After my bypass in 2000 when the general election went to the courts, I came to terms with my own mortality.

My finances have forced this, but I was also tired of being dependent on pills. I know that other people's conditions and attitudes may differ, that's just my experience.

D.C. and the states spend hundreds of billions pandering to illegal aliens, but Americans like you have to give up their *%$&*# meds because they don't have the money?

Lots of Americans like you have had to do the same Riley!

America is broken and needs to be fixed.
