THEY ARE SAYING "HANDS-OFF MY HEALTH CARE!"

Almost eighty per cent of Americans have health insurance coverage, and more than half of them apparently feel no obligation to help those who don't. They listen to the rabid mob of nay sayers instigated and supported by those profiteers who want things to stay just as they are. You know who they represent, don't you? You might guess prosperous Insurance Companies and Pharmaceuticals plus the health care providers afraid of competition or fair play. Truth be told, those smug insured citizens who want to keep the status quo, have much to fear with our present health care, should they suffer a major illness. That realization will likely be too late!

We have but a few monopolistic health insurers and they write their own rules, and their coverage is subject to selfish interpetation of their contracts. About half of the people forced into bankruptcy by a catastrophic, poorly insured illness had health insurance, and felt adequately covered. WRONG! Think about it. Is everything alright with our present health care policy, or do we need Obama's public option? Would we benefit from competition between those money obsessed providers and a nationalized option? G.
