Gotta remember, that wasn't the social norm baxk then. The stigma of being a homosexual was very high. I still remember when Murphy Brown became a single mother on the TV show of the same name and all the uproar it caused. I was a child when AIDS was splashed all over the news and all the warnings that came with it as well.

9:05 Spoken like every capitalistic businessman. When funds are tight, the first thing they cut is preventative maintenance. Then they end up spending even more in corrective action down the road. So much for the so called stable genius.

Money must be spent to save humankind especially in the Western World. You may not like it but America must be deleted or Taken away from the scheme of Nations out there.

For the rest of the 21St Century America will have to make the Health Sector safe for all of humankind out there. America did the right thing way back in the early 1990s to deal with HIV and other pathogens. How can a developed nation lack the will to deal with Common Viral diseases like Cathaar or Infuenza.

I was a child when the aids epidemic started. We as a nation politicize way too much to be able to come together to fight something. It takes strong leaders to do that. Our president at that time set us back at least 20 years. People tried. Those who had been at the forefront of aids research tried to tell us.
