Just to add - and sexist, bigoted discriminating system.
Also, poorer people not only bear the brunt of chemical waste and pollution
that fat companies spew, but they have less or no access to health care (I
believe some people have no access to health care in the US.). In Aust
all have access to health care but the public patient may have to wait so
long that they die before they are seen. For example the current wait in
Perth to have a cervical cancer treated is nine months. By this stage it
could have spread beyond repair. There are some real class and gender
issues in health care also.
