He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures. 9. He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power. 10.

As defunding hits rural hospitals, this hub is getting hit hard, and a man in too much pain to stand (or lay flat and still enough for an MRI, apparently)... has no news, yet, on a room.
At a prominent hospital, where the ambulance took him after a 911 call nearly 36 hours ago.
My FIL went to the ER yesterday morning (~9:30am in an ambulance).
Tonight, no word, yet, on a room. (Still a bed in the hallway.)
This is at Vanderbilt. Normally a hub for medical care in the regiomn, sure (ie, TN, maybe southern KY, etc...). But today including Birmingham.
