I see your Ranty McRantpants and offer you a Wordy McWordpants on the disabled healthcare stuff. Australia's currently undergoing both Medicare and Welfare reform, and I like to call the new policies the "HAY, SUCKS TO BE YOU GUYS, LOLZORS!". Well, I don't like to call them that, but it's appropriate nonetheless. I have some personal horror stories about the doctors I've been forced to see ("I'm coughing up blood!" "Here, take this." "... that's an earache medication, which I've already told you I'm allergic to." "Better just rest, then."), and that was under the old "indulgent", "enabling" system that's being reworked.
But I'm sure you don't need more ire to bolster your own, it seems quite healthfully rageful by itself. So I'll just say "thanks for putting anger into more coherent, idea-imparting phrases than most are capable of" and be done with it.
