Neighbors, The health insurance crisis is an extremely important issue to most of us. It's not just a neighborhood issue, and this summer will decide if half the US population will need to continue to live in fear of the real American health care choice: bankruptcy or death.
Here is a link to an interview with a whistle blower from the health insurance industry. It's rather long but a very important confirmation of what many "socialists" have been asserting. (Democracy Now is one of the few remaining investigative news organizations in the U.S. You can also watch the interview through their web site. This link goes directly to the transcript.) http://www.democracynow.org/2009/7/16/former_insurance_exec_wendell_porter Opinion: Many deaths caused by American health insurance profiteering are mistakenly counted as compliance related deaths. Many people refuse or avoid simple cost-effective health procedures such as screening for colon cancer because they fear hidden medical bills and not because they are stubborn. Even with insurance, self-employed people with "the best plans" often find themselves doing battle, after the fact, when they receive the bills 6 months later. This constant attempt to deny coverage is a deterrent to keep individuals terrified of following routine medical health maintenance. Glenn PS: Eat plenty of whole grains, fresh fruits and vegetables. That is the only health insurance you can count upon! ---- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to the list named "UnivCity."
