USA Healthcare reform, Scare Tactics and Ignorance

from Marc Rubin Examiner.com "There can be no rational objection to a public option unless you want to defend the sky high profits made by the insurance and drug companies who provide exactly the same drugs to other countries at 1/3 the price and seem to be doing very well financially with their Canadian and European operations. Or to defend the insurance companies on the basis of capitalism which has no place in a health care system anyway which is why every other civilized country has a univsersal single payer system. Not to mention that, as Wendell Potter testifeid, the insurance companies can't be trusted".

"The patient now in the healthcare system which everyone agrees is very sick. The market driven system places healthy profits ahead of healthy people and makes costs and profits for insurance companies the most important thing. When it comes to most insurance, it's healthy people wanted, sick people need not apply. The insurance companies don't care if it costs you an arm and a leg even if its your real arm and real leg".
