Mark Pellegrino is currently on his side account telling people why it’s a GOOD thing for millions to lose health coverage under an Obamacare repeal. Mark believes the government shouldn’t tax others to pay for things like welfare, medicaid, and environmental reform. Mark believes that clinging to every penny he’s earned is a more important right than a government/society taking care of those who cannot care for themselves.

The above was his response to someone sending him Misha’s impassioned plea to save Medicaid, a program which saved Misha as a child.

And yes, it’s really Mark’s side account:

Just think long and hard about who you’re giving your money to, even if they claim to care about helping people with mental illness:

For more utter bullshit, all you have to do is look at his replies:

You know, some of us can only function “to the best of our ability” with medication and therapy and regular meals. And you know what else? Some of us are poor!
And, you know, he’s a wild concept: in order for there to be charity for people like me to get medication and food and other things I need, other people who are better off than I am have to be charitable. They have to donate money and food so I can live because they’re both 1) able to do it financially and 2) good human beings.
… Remember when the Regan administration shut down all those mental hospitals that were total crap and expected “charity” to step in and create better ones? Yeah, there still isn’t a mental health hospital I can access in my state.
Basically, the people who complain about having to provide needy people with a “hand out” aren’t itching to actually help anyone.
