What your health care premiums are used for other than your health care.

[Cleita]

Whether you have to pay for your own premiums or your employer or union does, you are being robbed. This is where the money goes from your denied claims:

Million dollar $alaries and perk$, like yacht$, private jet$ and country club membership$ for top executive$ like the CEOs.

Advertisings like those Cialis ads with the old farts in bathtubs or Sally Field talking about her osteoporosis. Oscar winning actresses can't be cheap and any idiot knows that prime time advertising can run into hundreds of thousands of dollars for a minute of time coast to coast and on all prime broadcast channels.

Washington Lobbyists. In 2008 this is what they spent in contributions:

Pharmaceuticals/Health Products $234,612,254
Insurance $153,921,322
Hospital/Nursing Homes $ 99,089,521
Health Services/HMOs $ 62,991,752

Even energy lobbyists like gas and oil didn’t spend this much and it’s all your health care money going to this.

Campaign contributions to your Congre$$ional Repre$entatives and $enators. Open Secrets has the lists, which Harry Reid received top donations from nursing homes and hospital lobbyists (these are the for profit private ones).

Profit$ to Wall $treet

Wouldn’t you rather pay into a one payer system that doesn’t need to do all of the above and spends your money on your health care and prescription drugs?
