"I find it odious when the world’s richest man cackles about #America shoving programs for needy children “into the wood chipper.”
When you meet those dying #children and look into their eyes and hold their hands and feel faint heartbeats flutter, you can’t bear the gleeful laughter. You see children just like your own and hang your head in shame."
