Reply #23: The problem is, this HCR Law set in motion adverse dynamics; working against health care for all

[Uncle Joe]

that will only increase in strength with the passage of time.

The De Facto Mandate to purchase for profit "health" insurance without at least a strong national public option will send 30+ million captured customers to that most despised industry.

The people's premium dollars can only work against their own best interests, because a portion of those profits to that industry will in turn be used to bribe/lobby Congress or future political leaders against the idea of passing universal single payer coverage for every American or a strong national public option.

Some of those forced profits will also be used to speak against the peoples' best interests via advertising, commercials and general pundit propaganda through the corporate media.

As the population of the United States grows so will the pool of profits available to be used for those nefarious purposes as there are more captured customers, meanwhile the Congress will stay fixed at 535 members "insuring" a larger take for each Representative willing to sell out the people.

Edit for P.S. The recent Supreme Court decision; allowing unlimited corporate use of funds for issue advocacy during elections or any other time for that matter, will greatly magnify and speed up the intensity of this adverse dynamic.
