Health Care Debate...What Some Are Saying

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GZ6ssMRNvqA&feature=player_embedded Here are a few excerpts of what some are saying about the 46 million Americans without health care. Congressman Zach Wamp (R) Tennessee is adamant that health care is a privilege. Do they really express your sentiments? How many people do you know without health insurance?

Rick Scott gave up a lucrative career as a health industry CEO after being forced to resign amidst the largest Medicare FRAUD settlement in history. He went on to found Conservatives for Patients Rights, an organization dedicated to derailing Health Care Reform using tactics similar to the famous "swiftboat-style" campaign.

Health Care Reform is the most important domestic issue confronting this nation. If you are one of the 46 million uninsured, you know its importance. However, if you are one of the "privileged" persons with health care, you are aware of the ever growing cost to your pocketbook. Business and industry are aware of the expensive benefit they provide their employees and how it affects them in the global marketplace.

You've heard the old saying "you get what you pay for!" Well with regard to health care, this isn't the case. America has the most expensive health care system in the world, yet according to the World Health Organization, America has the 37th best (worst) health care system in the world.

Something has to give...America can't afford paying more and receiving less. It's time for meaningful Health Care Reform with a public option.

Don't be misled, fooled, or scared into accepting the status-quo. AMERICANS DESERVE BETTER!
