God Bless America
According to John Pilger, one of the most acclaimed journalists of all time, "More than 24,000 children die every day from the effects of poverty."
"Dr. Martin Luther King had a much more fundamental critique of our economic system. And certainly more fundamental than Obama has because a fundamental critique of our economic system would not simply give hundreds of billions of dollars to the bankers ... A fundamental change in our system would really create a greater equalization of wealth, would I think give us free medical care. Not the kind of half-baked health reforms that are being now debated in Congress."
Prof. Howard Zinn
Guys never realized how gratful I am to be British, when comes to healthcare my american buddies told me insurance premeums has gone up and insurance companies have very little regulation, there are people who have paid into there permuims for years and one day they get sick and they file a claim, the insurance who really would do any thing than payout, will hire a underwriter to comb through the policy to find anything, to void the claim, they generally look for pre existing conditions to deny coverage.
Underwriters have testified in front of congress, admitting they were paid bonuses on fow many people they could deny coverage too, thus keeping the insurance companies money.
That same insurance company can deny you more coverage just because you already have a condition, even though you are willing to pay, but the insurance company would rather take a healthly person on board who will pay just like a sick person, but are not likely to file a claim, geddit, they techically save the company money/profit.
It's like buying a car with a warranty, then having the manufacturer void your warranty when you bring it in for service or buying car insurance, paying your premiums and then getting dropped the first time you have have an accident without even paying to fix your car (that you have paid to insure in case of an accident).
Some people do not want universal healthcare because it means rich folk will pay higher taxes oh come on we are suppose to help poorer folk out , yes there will be some that abuse the system but that is like all charity, lets focus on the people that it will help.
Obamacare Forever
This week at nursing school, I learned about Hypertension
