3. I have given up expecting our $enator$ and Congre$$men from doing
Edited on Wed Feb-17-10 07:15 PM by Cleita
something that will work for the country as a whole. I think if we do anything we are going to have to start building cooperatives at the local level. Right now the credit unions are taking hold. We need to start doing employee owned businesses at every level until there is no need for Wall Street corporations any more. Eventually maybe people can pool their health care money into non-profit member owned health insurances until we all unite into one big member owned non-profit health plan. The thing with single payer, it doesn't have to be done by the government. If they pass something with the insurance exchanges then we need to band together to offer our own insurance in competition with them little by little until we steal all their business.
