Connecting Susan G. Komen to Unemployment Benefits?


How do I connect Susan G. Komen Foundation attack on women’s healthcare that has riled many people today with unemployment benefits? First of all,  I don’t understand why these people can’t think and what they get out of this.  It is sad and an attack on people.  The women that are supporting this narrow thinking without all the facts are really doing the dirty work of many wealthy people who are controlling the lower and middle class. Sorry – I’m not a paranoid person, but I read enough, watch enough news, have been around long enough to see all the changes in our society, including union busting, etc.  that I do believe there is a war on the middle class, killing our salaries, benefits, etc. while the wealthy never have to think about their healthcare, because affording it is not a problem.  And when the middle class lose their jobs, they also lose healthcare.  People are actually dying because they cannot afford medication.  This is when women turn to Planned Parenthood.

Things are upside down!
So tell me why the breast cancer foundation would withdraw money used for breast exams for poor women? Can anyone explain that?  So, what IS happening is that the country is becoming more aware.  They are seeing the absurdity of some of the things that are happening, like taking away worker's rights, and have had enough.  Fighting back is the answer.  It seems we need to be HIT over the head, but.... This susan g. komen issue has ticked me off, but also given me a target - I know that other states have been cutting funding, but this was a petition I could sign and send to others and educate others.   So, let's fight for the middle class and the poor and get benefits, keep unions, universal healthcare, birth control, etc.  Equality for all, not just ease for the wealthy.  Stay positive, avoid the negativity.  We need the unemployment benefits for those who can't find work yet, although I hope that's getting better.  Most people are not just "users" of the system, they are victims of the wall street and bank fraud that happened during Bush's administration.   Planned Parenthood is a helpful organization for women.  We need more opportunities for people to get healthcare, not fewer.
