The Land of The Free ...........if you are wealthy

A young black kid aged 12 dies of toothache yes toothache because his family did not have the money or the health insurance to get him treated, an abcess under his tooth spread to his brain and killed him.

The US senate overwhelmingly passes a bill to give more healthcare aid for poor families and Bush is going to veto it as it is against the principles of private healthcare.

How can a land be truly free when basic health requirements depend on ones income.

At times like this i just thank to high heaven we have the much maligned but free to all NHS.
