Sicko
Well guys i'm sure many of you have already seen the documentary on your spectacular HMOs.

I will be repeating myself by saying i have no freakin clue why the hell anybody would continue to support an industry that makes a profit by NOT paying for necessary healthcare.

I mean think about it.. would you rather pay 10% more in taxes for universal healthcare OR woudl you rather pay X dollars a month for health insurance with a company that specifically hires people to find a way to reject your claim?

If you choose the latter, i would be thrilled to hear your rationale.

and i am sure every american is going to vote for the candidate that offers universal health care........ are there any?

in australia we have had universal health care for over 30 years. it was introduced by a party that specifically campaigned with universal health care as one of its key policies and they won convincingly. whenever a political party has made any mention of changing it, they have lost the next election.

in america it seems to be the opposite. any party that offers universal health care is guaranteed to lose. really, of course, everyone loses in the end.
