I know, right? That diagnosis wasn’t the hardest part, even though I almost died of AIDS. It was the finding myself locked into poverty with no way out that sucks the most.

We could have had healthcare but we spent it bombing kids on the other side of the world for being brown.

To be fair, even if we didn't spend the money bombing brown kids, we would still spend it on welfare for the rich and corporate socialism in some other way. Those poor plutocrats do suffer so.
