Please, DU, Sticky this or link to NamesOf TheDead.com

It is a website that is needed for those who would need to remember the victims of the US healthcare industry. It is a website that fights the lies and smears of the healthcare lobbyists with true tales of loss, dignity and the indignities of death without a national healthcare system.

It contains stories that have to be read so that we can honour the victims and those who survive them.

It is the website that Alan Grayson mentioned in Congress and he is meeting it's costs.

1. Yes, it is an important website...
I knew three of the people who became names on that list/website. One is my younger brother who died in 2005 because we do not have healthcare in this country and my friend's brother and aunt who died in 2006 for the same reason.

Grayson certainly understood when he set up that site how much people who have lost loved ones for this reason want to tell their story so that those who say, "we do not need healthcare reform" can see the results of the (non)system we have now.
