huh, wonder if this guy is single...or just a really good guy.

Not single:

 

De Beyer stepped in and put his business up for sale, which has been in his family for the past 17 years. The man admits he also wants to unload the eatery so that he can spend quality time with his wife and two kids.

Hmm, i wonder to if the whole Obamacare wouldn't have helped that situation. I mean it's sorta required now but is it free for her or monthly cost which she probably can't afford as a young worker anyways?

 

She probably "makes too much" to qualify for free i'm guessing.

She's a waitress. She would qualify for free, since her regular income is in the $2-$3 /hr range.

And even if it wasn't free, paying a few hundred a month to cover the illness is a much better idea than either paying out of pocket for everything or selling a business to pay for it.

Every time one of these news show up, it reaffirms my resolve to never ever live in a country without UHC.

 

If she didn't have a sympathetic boss, what would be her fate?

"Uh-oh, you're going to die because you're poor. Sorry." :unsure:

Couldn't agree more.

The **** didn't she sign up for Obamacare for?

Because it's anything but affordable and she probably can't afford that either?  In the terms of the government she makes too much to qualify for "free".  Pretty much anyone who has any kind of a job doesn't qualify for free.

Hello,

Sorry but there has to be a backstory to this. Maybe the guy is in financial problems but knows he doesnt need all 2 million, so he is gonna give some to her. Thats great and I believe that.

But he is not selling it just so the girl can get treatment. As cold as it may sound, that is her issue, not his.

Im not going to continue because I know just because of what Ive said Im gonna get flamed. Plus, Im not even personally suppose to be in this section. It just blows my mind that people are naive enough to believe that the only reason he is selling is because of this girl.

I guarantee you she would qualify as free.
