Private industry canNOT provide a genuine care for health without running itself out of business… bottom line! As much as I firmly believe in free enterprise I do not believe that it takes priority over humane treatment.

  There are terribly inhumane crimes being committed in this current structure and although change is being offered in these bills, the changes are NOT with the best interest of humanity in mind.

  It’s time to reflect on the birth of this country and hold accountable all of the political, corporate and industrial criminals responsible for this holocaust. They have engineered 300 million “captive” consumers through methods of deception and intimidation with no more than their own financial gain as their concern.

  The country which claims to be the protector of human rights and freedom has turned out to be the worst of all violators. I have routine nightmares about what it will take to free ourselves from this abuse.

Any congress that has to argue this long to come up with a health care bill for its people that is this complicated and hedged round with exceptions and provisos ought to be ashamed to call itself a governing body and collect its salaries.

It is perfectly possible to come out with a fair bill that servess the basic health care needs of a population without ifs, ands and buts that disqualify and limit to the point where its citizens are reduced to arguing over whether it is better than nothing, or not. 

How about, grassroots citizens get together immediately and agitate locally for a select committee of the best known doctors, nurses and medical technicians, all of whom deal daily and nightly with desperate emergency ward patients who lack basic needs and come to them too late or in serious delayed circumstances.  Ask these professionals to draw up minimum recommendations for the basic requirements of a fair and balanced health care bill that does not throw people back onto the mercies of “health insurance agencies” whose primary interest is in NOT paying out benefits.  Let the most effective of these professionals lay it out for Congress and the public.

The system it screwed otherwise.  Those who see the needs up close and personal, and who can sympathize with sick people, need to have a primary position in formulating health care laws.  To allow insurance agencies and corporations to dictate peoples’ care in order to gamble and make money off of sick people is disgusting. It has nothing to do with “free enterprise”.  It’s cheating, pure and simple, kicking people when they are down.

The greatest X-mass present the Obama administration could give the Insurance Industry is more like it. 

This bill is clearly designed to scuttle any chance of ever getting meaningful health care in this country.
We need to begin a 3rd. party alternative to these corrupt Corporate Bastards NOW!

Does anyone even know what is in this bill that constitutes “health care reform”?
