Open Letter:
Dear Glenn Beck,
I heard a media file on the internet where you were explaining that social justice was a perversion of the gospel. You said: "Nowhere does Jesus say hey, if somebody asks for your shirt, give your coat to the government, and have the government give them a pair of slacks. That’s not what Jesus was saying. You want to help out. You help out. "
I am a 36 year old woman with Hashimoto's Thyroiditis, PCOS, and Stage II hypertension. I am currently unemployed and have no health insurance. Due to my diagnoses and the medications I take, I am classified as "uninsurable" if I attempt to purchase health care for myself in the private market.
I know that you're a very wealthy man from your position at Fox News. I also know that you're a self-professed Christian and take the words of the Savior to heart. Therefore, as of today, I am going to forward all of my medical bills to you. I have to receive care at the emergency department at my local hospital, because most doctors will not allow me to make an appointment if I don't have proof of health insurance. I hope you don't mind that the hospital will mark up the price for me up to 400% over what they'd charge for an insured patient's claim.
I know as a Christian, you will help me out with this. I am urging others who are struggling to contact you as well. There are about 46 million of us eagerly waiting for your kindness and generosity.
With much gratitude,
Naomi Brooks
