Our health care sucks..and it is primarily due to the practices of Insurance Companies and Big Pharma.
Health care should NOT BE AN INDUSTRY!!! It should be a service of the govt and a right of every citizen.
Why the hell do the very people who suffer the most feel that they are doing the right thing to fight reform?
The only ones who have a reason are those that are getting lots and lots of money from those in the health care INDUSTRY!!!
Everyone else should be out in the street with pitchforks and torches...demanding health care reform...
