Guess Whose Mouth is Watering

The Health Care Industry is Literally Getting Ready to Stick It In America

Health Insurance is mandatory? Fines imposed? Let’s make health insurance a mandatory requirement and thus force everyone to buy health insurance from the same 7 or 8 companies. Then lets see how rich these companies get and how good they can be at making claim denials in spite of the so called repeal of underwriting. Finally lets watch them merge into one or two companies and really impose their will on the backs of American lives.

This is no pipe dream. This is the most likely outcome at this point. Lets review the solutions:

1. Do nothing and watch the economy succumb into bankruptcy or inflate the dollar thus making most Americans fall into abject poverty. (this by the way is the only solution to the rising government deficits and debt.)

2. Do something and “ ”

There is only one solution to the health care crises and I am going to say it again, Single Payer system. Put the law and safety back in the hands of government and while you are at it throw every single lobbyist out of Washington. Lobbyists and the corporations that pay them are by their very nature the definition of corruption. While you are at either work in government or in the private sector not both. That goes for you Mr. Bernanke! You want to run the Fed then don’t work at Goldman. If you are a banker at no point should you get to become a regulator. Regulator= Regulator.

UnitedHealth’s Helmsley Earns $57,000 a day—Will It Increase After Obamacare?

The LA Times used the word “bonanza” recently in describing what Obama’s and Congress’ health care “reform” will mean to the insurance/pharma industries. Criminalizing the uninsured, i.e., making purchasing insurance mandatory, will bring massive profit-making for an industry whose profit-making already has crippled the present health care system so badly that 45,000 uninsured Americans die each year prematurely – unnecessarily — according to a recent Harvard study. What our President and Congressional representatives, ostensibly employed by and committed to us, seem to be doing these days is exchanging true health care reform for their own campaign financing needs. It is the proverbial elephant (and donkey) in the room. To shift animal metaphors, these representatives are entrusting the public hen house to the foxes, in the guise of reform for citizens. Yes, waiving “no pre-existing conditions” would be of significant value, but what will be the giveaways? What devastating, small-print, loop-hole ambushes will unfold as painful epiphanies in our individual futures?
