heart attack or accident
dying at emergency room door
salvation so close so far
no real doctor worth his/her salt
would demean herself/himself by
not treating life threatening injuries
directors bean counters share holders
who decides life death paid policies?
hearts passion or clinical profit decides
private hospital policy a dying patient
without money health care insurance might
be turned away denied life all treatment?
government should care provide for citizens?
health care education is a basic human right?
no money for poor million billions for wars?
