And why can't they afford healthcare?

Because medical costs are totally outrageous in this country, insurance companies only want to pay for so much care, and we have no universal health care which would take care of the need for Medicare.

You really think someone making $10 an hour can afford the costs of treatment for a major medical problem? Not to mention someone who's retired and living on a fixed income, and older which means they'll likely need more medical care?
