No, not the health INSURANCE debate.  The debate about actually letting real people see a doctor when necessary.

A new wrinkle:

Seems some people are getting desperate. And the particular person mentioned below doesn’t seem to be in a position to be helped by anything that the President and Congress have passed this year.

Unemployed Michigan woman shoots herself to get health care

Associated Press — Detroit News

Niles, Mich. — An out-of-work Michigan woman shot herself in the hope she’d  receive medical treatment for a shoulder injury.

Kathy Myers says she injured the shoulder a month ago while playing with her dogs.

The 41-year-old Niles resident says she’s been unable to see a specialist because she can’t afford health insurance.

So Myers shot herself on Thursday.

She was released from the hospital a few hours later.

….

The prosecutor’s office is going to decide whether Myers will face charges for firing a weapon within city limits.
