Between 2000-2007: 1. A profit increase for health insurance companies of 400% 2. Uninsured people up 19%
Steven Helmsley of United Health Care. $1 of every $700 spent on health care went to pay his salary alone. He made $3.2 million in salary last year, but had $744 million in stock compensation. That's $102,000 per hour. Twice what the average American makes in a year. Twice the amount of money in 1 day that the President of the United States makes in a year. Health care denied to Americans so he can put the profit in his pocket? Now he'll use a little bit of that money and use poor minions to invoke fear into the hearts of Americans. Playing the poor minions like an old violin, because the minions can't think for themselves, and he can, so he can defend his profits. In actuality, he could be replaced by someone making 1/100th what he does...preferably an illegal Mexican, Chinese, or even Arab (I mean you have the whole world of people to choose from), the same ones that have replaced so many of your jobs. And this is a guy I should be concerned about his taxes being raised? I think not. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21134540/vp/32364762#32364762 Sick for profit. http://sickforprofit.com/ So, is that really what you want more of? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Thanks for being part of "PoliticalForum" at Google Groups.
