If anybody is still in doubt that the recent "health insurance reform" bill is a giveaway to the insurance and drug industries that leaves Americans without affordable health care, just take a look at today's New York Times article: In House Record, Many Spoke With One Voice: Lobbyists’ that describes how legislators OF BOTH PARTIES, allowed lobbyists for a drug firm, Genentech, to write their speech copy for them!
The lobbyists had typically written different "suggested" Dem and GOP flavors praising the legislation!
We need to stop the 101,000 preventable deaths each year from health care being unaffordable since 2000. Thats going to require dramatic reductions in the costs of drugs and medical care, and elimination of the 30-50% insurance profit tax. Is legislation that was probably written word for word by these giant corporations going to help American families attain health that they can afford?
What do you think?
