Harvard Study: Lack of Insurance Causes 45,000 Deaths Every Year PEEK AlterNet
Isn't this a good enough argument for a public option and against "death panels"? Compring insurance to gambling the insurance company is the "house" which never leses.

Join Michael Moore in Calling For National HEALTH Care
From The Pen:
TELL CONGRESS IT'S TIME TO PASS NATIONAL HEALTH CARE INSURANCE
Every other major industrialized nation in the world has systematicnational health care insurance. It is only the United States that operates on a gouge the poor to the max plan. This issue is going to have much increased visibility this summer as a result of the latest Michael Moore documentary expose, Sicko, which opens June 29th everywhere.
Now is the time for us to all come together and call for passage ofH.R. 676, the National Health Care Insurance Act.
ACTION PAGE: http://www.usalone.com/hr676.php
Unless you are independently wealthy every day is a nightmare in our current health care system. Most of the time those nightmares don't make the evening news, but some are just too depraved not to become notorious. You may have heard, last month a woman literally bled to death on the floor of an emergency room waiting area, while the security camera tape showed the staff ignoring her because she didnot have the correct insurance, while other people desperately called 911 to try to get someone to do something to help her.
Under H.R. 676, Medicare would be extended and improved so that all individuals residing in the United States would receive high quality and affordable health care services. They would receive all medically necessary services by the physicians of their choice, with no restrictions on what providers they could visit. If implemented, the United States National Health Insurance Act would cover primary care, dental, mental health, prescription drugs, and long term care.
ACTION PAGE: http://www.usalone.com/hr676.php
Isn't it time to end the national disgrace of a health care system DESIGNED to bankrupt all who are unfortunate enough to need it, as we all will eventually? Isn't it time to regulate health care providers to provide for the benefit of the national common good, as opposed to the maximum exploitation of the sick?
Please join Michael Moore insubmitting the action page above to put some real pressure on Congress now. Please take action NOW, so we can win all victories that are supposed to be ours, and forward this message to everyone else you know.

Video: Michael Moore speaks with Bill Maher about "Sicko" [VIDEO]
This is a great interview. I will see the movie as soon as I can. I have had bad experiences dealing with the greedy insurance industry and I would guess that most of you have too.

Michael Moore movie on U.S. healthcare
AlterNet: EnviroHealth: Controversial Michael Moore Flick "Sicko" Will Compare U.S. Health Care with Cuba's: "'The World Health Organization ranks health care systems based on objective measures of medical outcomes: The United States' health care system currently ranks 37th in the world, behind Colombia and Portugal; the United States ranks 44th in the world in infant mortality, behind many impoverished Latin American countries. While infant mortality in the United States is skewed toward poor people, who have rates double the wealthy, the top quintile of the U.S. population has infant mortality rates higher than Canadians in the lowest quintile of wealth."

Bill to Let Medicare Negotiate Drug Prices Is Blocked
This is just ridiculous. The federal government is paying but they're not allowed to ask for a better price. Conservatives can call it what they want but I still say it's ridiculous. Is there any common sense in the American system?
