Stop Feeding the Health Insurance Monster and Fix our Deficit!

The only solution to our budget deficit is single payer, national health insurance plan which cuts out the for profit, private insurance industry who literally take hundreds of billions off the top for themselves and forcing 50 million Americans to be without health insurance. America spends 50% more per capita than Canada does on health care. What is the difference? Canada has a balanced budget for the past decade. America’s deficit is $13 trillion dollars. Canada can control health care costs. America’s health care costs are bankrupting our country. Canada has single payer. America does not. Go figure!

You can stand up against this waste of taxpayer dollars by demanding that we stop subsidizing the for-profit, private health insurance industry and institute a single payer system, similar to HR 676. (www.healthcare-now.org).  In Pennsylvania, ask your representatives to support HB 1660 or SB 400, the Family and Business Health Security Act, which would institute a single payer health plan in Pennsylvania. Governor Rendell has stated he would sign the bill if it is passed. (www.healthcare4allpa.org).
