In the very low blow department–As I’ve pointed out before, the current system of health insurance in this country is hugely discriminatory against women, but what I somehow missed until today is that health insurance can be denied to victims of domestic violence in nine states and the District of Columbia because domestic violence is considered a pre-existing condition! No this isn’t a Granny Death Panel type rumor, it comes straight from a website run by the oh-so-radical Department of Health and Human Services.
As the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) blog puts it, “Words cannot describe the sheer inhumanity of this claim.”
If you are as angry about this as I am, please immediately let your elected officials know via the SEIU site.
