Re: Welcome to civilisation. (4.00 / 4)

I'm not sure that saying "I enjoyed" such a heart wrenching diary is appropriate, but thanks for posting. I live in a town where at least 25% of the population don't have health insurance, and therefore little health care and no dental. It's appalling that a so-called first world country cares so little for it's people.
