If the poorest Americans are selling their blood, the US is in serious trouble | Arwa Mahdawi

There is something fundamentally sickening about the US blood plasma industry. A meaningful welfare state could put a stop to such desperate measures, says Arwa Mahdawi

Here in the civilised world we donate our blood. After you have given 10 pints you are given a lapel badge.
But the deeper issue is how a profit making healthcare system sucks the humanity out of people.

You do know selling Plasma has been going on forever and if you believe Wales is more civilized than New York or any other part of America, well you are arrogant and ignorant!

^^^^^ The socialist speaks. The hospital will charge dearly for the blood. The recipient will pay dearly for the blood. But Tommy is incensed at getting a cut of the action for the trouble of actually DONATING the blood.

Everyone needs money to operate but Tommy wants you to get by for free.

What do you do for a living, Tommy, panhandle?

Without that blood, people die. All Tommy wants out of it is a lapel pin.

My O my how they must love you over there.

Perhaps you could explain how a government can spend tens of trillions of dollars to stop poverty and hunger and it still exists at the same level from when the War on Poverty started?

The Democrat party has been making the people poor so that they can drain the life out of us.

Quite correct. People have been selling their blood since forever.

What an arrogant asshole the Op is. He should stick to criticizing GB.

Oh wait. I forgot. He just likes to criticize Trump. Never mind. He sure ain't worth it.

lol...morning tommy, ...your spin doctors are the ones who should not be getting paid cuz that translates into "Americas poor are compensated and europes are not"

But the deeper issue is how a profit making healthcare system sucks the humanity out of people.

again you have terrible doctors tommy...first it is only Americas poor that are turning a profit in the scenario you provide, second the inhumane blood sucking occurs when they just take your blood as though it is there right just because you are poor...a badge for even just one pint of blood is a spit in the face tommy.

this is the type of government that europeans have used in the past to make things like fascism look good, the poor are getting paid and it has the socialists in an uproar

The poorest American blood has more liberty than the blood of the richest British royalty. But don't ask us to shed it for you next time your measly little island is overrun with fascists. You're just not worth it.

Tommy's a Colonialist bastard. 244 years and he's still trying to run our affairs from his little floating turd, off the coast of France.

The OP realized all these years he has been donating Plasma and he could have been paid for it...

My Uncle was O negative and would sell his blood for top dollar and I sold my Plasma even though I did not need the money...

Part of doing business...
