The fight for universal healthcare has been frustrating. Congresscritters are taking off in August while people die for lack of medical attention. Who elected these fools!?
So tomorrow Friday we convene the Single Payer Happy Hour once more.
Come and join us at the corner of Califa and Topanga Cny Blvd. at 5PM. This location in Woodland Hills is strategically close to Blue Cross, Blue Shield, Wellpoint and Health net HQs.
This photo is from the last one in July. As you can see we are having fun and doing something good at the same time.
After sunset we move to the nearby TGI Friday on Canoga and Califa where I WILL BUY THE FIRST ROUND to all who show up.
When Pris from LA and I started organizing the Single Payer Happy Hour events on the last Friday of each month our idea was that if we could get enough participants and make enough noise we may get some media attention to the Single Payer concept which we think is the only way that a Public Option can pay for itself.
I can tell you we are not happy at all given that no only healthcare reform has been postponed until Congresscritters get back from their summer vacation but even a crappy Public Option is considered unattainable let alone Single Payer.
But we can only do what we can, so tomorrow we make noise in Woodland Hills.
So come on down and let's strategize our next moves.
