Another minor oversight in the full-frontal assault on health care for working people here in L.A.: City Considers Transit Changes In Wake Of King-Drew Downsizing. Now that people in South Central no longer have access to a hospital, they have to go to another one that is 11 miles away. But, oops, it is 18 miles and 90 minutes by bus. Minor oversight.
And, continuing to rub salt into the wounds, we have this quote from Councilwoman Janice Hahn: "Many people in South Los Angeles were dying 40 years ago because of the distance they had to travel to access health care. Forty years later, we're back in the same situation." I think Hahn (who is complicit in all this) is trying to point out how good people have it now, because the current plan in the works is to move things back 100 years.
