When you deny health care, you get a bonus
We have 4 health care lobbyists for every member of congress.
US is 37th in health care internationally.
"I denied a man a necessary operation and thus cost his death" ( "I wish to begin by making a public confession: In the spring of 1987, as a physician, I caused the death of a man. Although this was known to many people, I have not been taken before any court of law or called to account for this in any professional or public forum. In fact, just the opposite occurred: I was "rewarded" for this. It bought me an improved reputation in my job, and contributed to my advancement afterwards. Not only did I demonstrate I could indeed do what was expected of me, I exemplified the "good" company doctor: I saved a half million dollars!" - Linda Peeno U.S. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES COMMITTEE ON COMMERCE , SUBCOMMITTEE ON HEALTH AND ENVIRONMENT) http://www.thenationalcoalition.org/DrPeenotestimony.html

SACRAMENTO -- The California Universal Health Care Act, SB 840, establishes a single payer universal health care system in California. It passed the Senate Floor by a vote of 22-14 and now heads to the California State Assembly. It covers every California resident with comprehensive health benefits, contains the growth in health care spending, and provides patients with total choice over their doctors and hospitals.

“California is leading the nation on health care reform with passage of SB 840,” stated California Senator Kuehl. Next Tuesday, Senator Kuehl, chair of the Senate Health Committee, will chair a legislative briefing featuring filmmaker Michael Moore and three witnesses who star in Moore’s upcoming film “SiCKO”.

Moore’s documentary is an up-close view of America’s crumbling health care system and what the health care crisis has meant in real terms for many insured Americans.

“This film will hopefully serve as a wake up call about the way that insurance companies are mismanaging our healthcare system”, stated Senator Kuehl. “It shows that insurance companies don’t really want to improve care, they simply exist to avoid risk. As a result the system doesn’t work for those who have any kind of medical risk. Sooner or later that is every one of us.”
A briefing on medical care will take place on Tuesday, June 12th from 12:00 pm-1:30 pm at the State Capitol Room 4203. A rally, sponsored by the California Nurses Association, will take place at 2:00 on the West Steps of the Capitol.
