  Please, please, please cite me one instance of a child dying in this country from lack of care. Not some fake statistic cut me pasted from some liberal website but a real verifiable case. If what you are spewing is true that should be an easy challenge. I promise you this, if you find one case to support your argument I will find a million to support mine. Remember real verifiable cases. I already have mine so get to work and find me one.

  Not only do we take care of our own children but we export our generosity to other country's that dont/can't take care of their children as we do. Here is a real life story for you. I know you won't believe it because it goes against everything you think you know about life in these United States. I was scheduled for surgery and got a call postponing it for one week. The reason was the doctor had been asked to drop everything and fly to South America to treat a child there. A group of volunteer doctors had gone on a mission trip and a little girl was brought in that need specialized surgery.. Someone on the team knew that my doctor had the KSA's to save this little girl nd called him. He dropped everything and went, UT rather than do the one surgery he stayed the entire week operating every day, sometimes 2-3 times, he also gives away his services here at home.

  A  very personal story. This same doctor performed a series of operations on me. When we got o the final phase I was sitting in the scheduling office and the finance lady was explaining that this procedure was considered elective/cosmetic and insurance may not pay. The doctor happened to be walking by and overheard us discussing payment options. He  walked in the office and and told her he felt sure that he could get it ruled medical necessary and insurance would pay, but if not his foundation would pay for it. I'm not sure what happened because I never got a bill, not even for deductibles. He said he felt like I had been through enough without worrying about how to pay for this surgery. Is he an exception? Sure, but he exists. If he does, so do others. Remember, I am prepared to prove a million to one  eligible cases of children's lives saved, in this country, without regard to ability to pay. All I ask of you is one verifiable case of a child dying because they weren't insured.

Or we can argue these facts like you did about no coverage for pre-existing conditions. Making a fool of you is so easy even an old uneducated redneck right wing but like me can do it.
