[UC] More reports of changing health plans

2010-02-09 Thread Glenn moyer
Health insurance profits and stocks have been skyrocketing as the sham reform 
debate continues.  All across America people are not being allowed to keep 
their insurance plans as President Obama asserted.  Like 29,000 PA small 
business people have had their Personal Choice plan dropped, this is quietly 
happening to people across the country. (Here is a report from California. My 
comment is #30)

This weekend, Anthem Blue Cross in California announced that their rates would 
go up as high as 39% in the next year.

[UC] Inspiring heroes, Drs arrested for health care

2010-02-09 Thread Glenn moyer
Here is the link to Dr. Margret Flowers on Bill Moyer's Journal.  The President 
had made a forceful request for alternative health care proposals in his state 
of the union speech.  All of his stated requirments would be easily answered by 
a medicare for all system, but it was a hollow request.  Single payer experts 
have been denied a place in the health care debate since the beginning.  This 
is a proven well documented and recorded fact.  

In our nit-wit society, Drs. Flowers and Paris provide a much needed model 
for inspiring heroism! This is a must see video clip and discussion. 
 

http://www.pbs.org/moyers/journal/02052010/watch3.html

The juxtaposition of the bold request from the bully pulpit and the letter 
from this national medical organization demonstrates the process piloted in our 
neighborhood, and neighborhoods across the country.  Using the powerful media 
spin machine, inclusiveness and transparency are always pretended in front 
of the public.  But the process that actually occurs is tightly controlled 
with a phony debate among the elite and powerful moneyd interests. The process 
for silencing the most important voices, who back the general public and not 
the special interest, has been thoroughly tested during the decade of the 
housing bubble and the national gentrification movement.

The housing bubble provided the perfect laboratory to test the civic literacy 
of the middle class and their commitment to democratic values and processes!  I 
think our neighborhood showed all of the elements of the plutocracy process 
succeeding with little resistance!

Compare the local and national process: Think of who is allowed at the FOCP 
planning committee and the SHCA zoning committee meetings  It is a bold lie 
to say that these committees are inclusive and transparent. It is also a lie 
that national debates about health care, banks, and wars are open and honest.  
The powerful spin machine overwhelms reporting of the true process and too many 
people shut their eyes to the sham until it hits them directly.

Since the staff can't afford to live in the Hood, and SEPTA can't run in  
the snow, and a wired student body will twitter roving snowball fights, and 
...  PRC doesn't have to sell any of USA paper to punish us; we are 
collapsing  under our own decadence -not Gore's hot air inducing global warming 
deceit. Any  parties on 46th St?
