I went and refilled my insulin prescription today and ran into some really stressful news. Since it’s a new year, and prices need to be adjusted for inflation, I would have to pay $81.91 for my one month’s supply of Humalog Insulin Pens, and another $32.50 for my one month supply of Lantus Long Acting insulin.
Actually, I wouldn’t have to pay the $32.50 because I didn’t have it, and would just have to hope that last months supply would last me long enough till I get paid again.
I was kind of upset by the amount. I really wanted to get some breakfast, but I couldn’t now because I had to borrow a $1.91 from the pharmacy tech just to pay for the one insulin. I thought about who I blame for this precious life support being so expensive. It was just a liquid in a piece of plastic. It didn’t used to be so expensive. Who was causing this outrage?
I could blame the government for not fixing the health care system. But then again, it is really the greedy insurance companies trying to make a dime who corrupt our government. You know what, didn’t Micheal Moore make a movie about all this? Were we not all disgusted by the sad stories in the film?
At that point wasn’t the whole thing supposed to change?
Micheal Moore must not have made a good enough movie to change people’s minds. I really though he touched a nerve when I watched it, but the results say otherwise. His movie must have sucked balls, and no one felt anything. No one changed, and no one became a better person.
So I blame Micheal Moore and his shitty movie for not changing the world. Why do I have to give my lunch money just to survive? Why are so many people suffering because they don’t have money? We as a society should be way past this greedy selfish point.
So fuck you Micheal Moore. I hope you at least made some money off the suffering of others, because you sure as hell didn’t change the world like you so assholingly lead me to believe.
