…The Best Cure For Lies

Notice to Tea Bag Patriots and all those yelling, screaming, crying people at town hall meetings:

You are being lied to, used and laughed at and it hurts to watch. It’s painful to see people abused in this manner. Please wake up. They are scaring you with straw men, boogey men, red herrings and outright lies. There is no death panel. There is no euthanasia clause. Medical insurance company bureaucrats already come between you and your doctor. Your insurance company can drop you anytime they want. Insurance companies can and do refuse coverage of people with pre-existing conditions because it isn’t profitable for them. They can and do often refuse service anytime they want even if you’ve paid your premiums. Insurance companies already often refuse medical service even if you or a loved one is nearing the end of life and even if your doctor thinks you need that service. Families are losing their homes and their life savings when catastrophic health issues strike.

The healthcare status quo in this country needs to go.

We need reform; meaningful, thoughtful reform. We can’t get there without informed people having a civil dialogue about the facts. Read the proposed bills and plans; discuss them with your elected political representatives, friends, and neighbors. The people on radio and television and elsewhere using scare tactics against you do not have your best interest at heart. They have one goal: keep the huge profits flowing for themselves and their mega-corporation owners under the current healthcare system. They are using you.
