This meme is a screenshot of a Twitter conversation between two users, @CBSNews and @Public_Citizen. The conversation is about a 2-year-old child who was denied a $20,000 electric wheelchair by their insurance, and a high school robotics team built the child a free wheelchair. The text reads: "This 2-year-old's family couldn't afford his $20,000 wheelchair. So, a high school robotics team built him one for free. This country is so...". The conversation is a commentary on the state of the US healthcare system, and the quote is a commentary on the lack of access to healthcare for the child.

O} CBS News @ @CBSNews This 2-year-old's family couldn't afford his $20,000 electric wheelchair, and their insurance didn't cover it. So, a high school robotics team built him one for free ® va Public Citizen @ @Public_Citizen This country is so accustomed to its monstrous health care system that when a 2-year-old child with a genetic condition needs to rely ona high school robotics team to meet his basic health care needs the media thinks its a feel-good story, not a dystopian nightmare.
