My (thinkingblue) submission SINGLE PAYER HEALTH CARE:
I am so dismayed by what is happening (or not happening) in our country about health care reform. Hasn't this important issue sat on the back burner for far too long? Single Payer Health Care (Medicare) is the only insurance program that can reach ALL THE PEOPLE not just the ones who were lucky enough to be born to a family who could afford giving their offspring the tools to earn a LIVING WAGE. These are hard times but for low income people there is nothing new here. "Hard Times" is a lifestyle. President Bush once told us we already have a form of socialized medicine it's called the EMERGENCY ROOM. What a cruel and LET ‘EM EAT CAKE statement that was. Exclusion from a decent life because your income isn't enough to allow you the basic needs of life should have been buried in the past long ago. Yet here we are 2009 and there are many people, too many, who are deprived from having the peace of mind knowing, they and their families are covered in case of a real Emergency. Must I live the rest of my days in a sad, angry state because I care about those who can’t afford good health care? If we don’t give a damn about our neighbor’s plight, we as a country will never survive; history has proved this over and over. More Below
