The point is, everyone has an "angle" to look out for their best interest, to propagate for the best return for their investment. The parent of the Child, invests toward their interest by protesting, the Insurance Co. claims they were slow to act due to unproven methodology, the writer that brought the story to the attention of the public has underlying motives. Hey, we call this system CAPITALISM. It's not perfect but it has provided the best, bar none, life style for any peoples that have ever existed on this planet. We by majority have more work than than we do workers, as evidenced by illegal immigration explosion, I don't see many people risking their lives to take a row boat to get back into Cuba, I don't see a Wall standing erect to keep people from escaping the eastern communist block nations. But I do notice nations such as France taking a step back and giving their system a good "once over" as evidenced by the conservative turn in the government.

Sure, its sad to see someone sick, but in reality that's life, we are born, we live until we die and that little space that happens in between is called "LIVING"......If anyone spends the most part their life playing the "victim", and blaming All life's problems on others without taking responsibility for their own freewill choices, you turn around and look and we have more invested in dying than than we do living. Live hard, respect others, be responsible, and take care of yourself. No one will do it for you, they may pretend, but in the end everyone is looking out only for their best interest. None of us should have to live like this, and we don't have to. Simply treat people the way that you expect to be treated, EXPECT NOTHING MORE, ACCEPT NOTHING LESS. Ralph
