Stealing Health Care


Need health care? Can't afford it? Rob a bank.

James Verone lost his job of 17 years due to the recession. He has supported himself with part time and temporary jobs but that wasn't enough.

On a side note, he is to be commended for this attitude. Rather than wait on the government to bail him out he went out and looked for work. Honest work . . . before he turned to crime.

In jail, Verone said he skips dinner to avoid too much contact with the other inmates. He's already seen some nurses and is scheduled to see a doctor on Friday. He said he's hoping to receive back and foot surgery, and get the protrusion on his chest treated. Then he plans to spend a few years in jail, before getting out in time to collect Social Security and move to the beach.

The rest of the story is here.
