    Health care and education is of little concern to the underclass, it would cost them money,  The worldly Golden Rule: Whoever Has the Gold Makes the Rules.   

    Martin Luther King Jr. ~“Of all the forms of inequality, injustice in health care is the most shocking and inhumane.”

    Apologies Beans/SG but I don't understand your reply. When you say "underclass" to whom do you refer? The wealthy or everybody else? I think the wealthy (with some exceptions of course) don't give a rat's a** for the "lower classes". We the people are the ones upon whom the wealthy look down. So could you clarify what you mean please and thank you. Happy Sunday to thee! :)

    underclass
    Definition
    Popular Terms
    People who are at the bottom of a society having become victims of poverty trap. This class is largely composed of the young unemployed, long-unemployed, chronically-sick, disabled, old, or single-parent (usually the mother) families. It also includes those who are systematically excluded from participation in legitimate economic activities, such as cultural, ethnic, or religious minorities or illegal immigrants. Children of the underclass (specially those from single-parent families) often lack educational qualifications and social and other skills and are, therefore, unable to rise out of it.

    Both medical insurance and higher education are consumer products and available to purchase by all.
