I fucking hate America

The health system in particular. Because of my families crappy insurance we can old get 3rd rate docs ‘covered’ by insurance. We don’t even have the option for better docs. How screwed up is that? My health is considered 3rd rate to the government. I am a human being. I deserve health care. 

My complaint doesn’t even begin to cover the insurance company trying to screw us over and they would have if my mom doesn’t have a background in medicine.

This is fucking stupid. I have just as much of a right to health care as donald trump and yet according to people like him. I don’t.

So fuck America.

Diagram of a Royal Navy 3rd rate ship of the line from the Cyclopaedia, Vol 2 (which was published in 1728). The Cyclopaedia was one of the very first encyclopedias to ever be published and was immensely popular throughout the 18th century--George Washington is known to have had an edition of it at Mt. Vernon for example.

(I've previously blogged about the Cyclopaedia here.)
