True Healthcare Reform Is Single Payer
True healthcare reform will not happen on the National level here in the US because the politicians in Washington are bought and sold by the Corporate special interests, and one of the biggest of these are the Health Insurance Companies.
We have two bills here in Pennsylvania that I have helped get front and center to Republicans and Democrats alike. The Bills are House Bill 1660 and Senate Bill 400.
We call it Civilized Healthcare for all.
Everybody in. Nobody out.
The woman in the introductory picture is holding a check made out to the state of Pennsylvania for $353,000,000.
This how much money the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania will save by enacting this legislation.
Once we do it, you will want to do it, too.

This Is How Single Payer In PA Will Be Paid For
Civilized healthcare for all replaces the profit-centered insurance company that denies coverage to ensure big profits. It eliminates 84% of what we now waste on administration, advertising, marketing, CEO saleries and perks. VA-style bulf purchasing of pharmaceuticals also reduces cost (the VA saves 50% or more).
The U.S. spends more than twice as much per person on healthcare as the other 34 industrialized countries (all of which have Universal Healthcare).
Hb 1660 and SB 400 provides prompt, quality, comprehensive healthcare for all. It is paid for using existing State and Federal funds and a 3% personal and 10% business health and wellness fee.
Most individuals and businesses realize substantial savings over what they currently pay to insurance premiums, administrative costs, prescription drugs, co-pays and deductibles.
The plan will cover all permanent and temporary legal residents of the Commonwealth.
BENEFITS
1) Quality healthcare for all
2) You pick your own doctor.
3) You and your doctor determine the best course of treatment, not an insurance company.
4) No denial of coverage. No pre-existing conditions. No exceptions for "experimental" procedures, or anything else except elective cosmetic surgery.
5) No need for Medicare Supplemental coverage.

Yes, and sadly, what I know is that the Democrats aren't even allowing its consideration. We need a third party, a progressive party alternative.

Thank you, Laura, because the propaganda machines have many Americans believing that Canada has long waits and generally a bad healthcare delivery system.
I know you would never trade what you have (civilized) for what we have (greed). I know this because you and I have discussed this many times!!
Thanks for commenting.

Makes sense to me! But, I'm a Canadian and we have healthcare available to all already. Don't believe the naysayers who say that Canada's health care system is crippled - it's not and it's fair and is available to all Canadians.
