Trevor is 41 and dying of liver disease. He lives in a low-income housing facility and he doesn’t have health insurance.
“Had Trevor lived a simple thirty-nine minute drive away in neighboring Kentucky, he might have topped the list of candidates for expensive medications called polymerase inhibitors, a life-saving liver transplant, or other forms of treatment and support,” Metzl writes. But Tennessee officials repeatedly blocked efforts to expand Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act.
But Trevor is not mad at the state’s elected officials. “Ain’t no way I would ever support Obamacare or sign up for it,” he tells Metzl. “I would rather die.” When Metzl prods him about why he’d choose death over affordable health care, Trevor’s answer is telling. “We don’t need any more government in our lives. And in any case, no way I want my tax dollars paying for Mexicans or welfare queens."

Thankfully he is dying
Why doesn’t he get his ass out of the low income subsidized housing?
I like when individuals mention their tax dollar, how much tax do they actually pay?
Feel awful for the fact a human being is suffering and dying, but what he says, it stupidity on the level one just can not comprehend.
Sending thoughts and prayers to a painful end. After all, dude supports jailing toddlers.
He was OK with government involvement giving him affordable housing though...typical hypocrisy haha
Trump supporter confused by math in his vision about President Ivanka’s future time in office
The mathematical skills of a Donald Trump supporter were called into question during an interview with The Daily Show correspondent Jordan Klepper.
Klepper interviewed the man — with a Trump hat and shirt — at a Trump campaign rally.
“Why are you here?”
“Well, because two weeks ago I had a dream and in that dream I had this vision,” he said, as he turned around to show what was printed on the back of his shirt.
It showed a “Trump dynasty.”
Klepper however noticed some errors with the shirt.
“These are mostly one-term presidents,” he noted.
“No, you’re not reading it right, brother,” the Trump supporter replied. “What does it say for Ivanka? What is the date?”
“Ivanka is 2024 to 2028,” Klepper replied.
“That’s eight years,” the Trump supporter claimed.
“That’s four years!” Klepper replied. “Your math is wrong.”
“No, my math is not wrong,” the Trump supporter claimed.
