3. Clearly Profit Care is more important than Patient Care in E.TN and SWVA

Buyer beware if you live in this area, the health care system isn't anything like they are advertising and it's all okay as long as the politicians and the profit machines are raking it in, people just don't matter anymore. http://www.wisecountyissues.com/?p=62

4. As a CA Registered Nurse for 40 years

... when I see Kathleen Sebelius speaking before the senate, as I did last night, saying that she prefers a free-market competitive environment for healthcare insurance companies, I want to scream. She says this will INCREASE the quality of healthcare for US citizens. I am not kidding. Free-market principles are as valid as any other economic methodology, but not NOW and not in healthcare.

7. I am not sure that the free market theories hold any weight

Given how heavily connected the insurance industry is with the banking industry and how much the "Too Big to fail" bankers needed our elevern trillion and a half bucks to sustain their ability to keep their doors open.

But I scream too. The voice you hear in the background isn't just an echo, it is me.

And I am sure there are counbtless others screaming.

And that Karen Igninininininin makes me scream as well. (Never can remember how to spell her name - but it might well be omanopoetic for nails screeching on blackboard.)
