I love and appreciate the work they are doing to make healthcare available for those who need it.
But, unfortunately, I don't think they are doing much to help a broken system. They pay operating costs via donations, but what about the donation I make to my country's wellbeing every paycheck, ever time I spend money?
I'm not saying they're doing any harm, I just think we need more people/ organizations fighting to combat the issue directly. And I think term limits are probably a good first step.

St Jude does not control term limits. In the meantime. They are helping kids.

They could speak out against the fucked-up US healthcare system.
Healthcare is expensive beyond what donations can provide.
