  • OH I called.... wrote... pleaded with congressmen to pass a public option... BUT IT"S clear that the system will not allow it because so many of them are in bed with the health insurance companies..... SAD SAD for America... unless we all come together and demand it ... IT"S not happening people ... It will take a revolution in this country.

  • Capitalists: It is YOUR fault that things are the way they are. YOU pulled us from our land based communities to serve at your industrial altar. Now this is what we require to survive SINGLE PAYER HEALTHCARE. Get over it, pay the bill, move on.

  • Neal Boortz asked the question: If you get sick why do I have to pay for it? No one on this planet exists alone. Nothing you own, nothing you earn, nothing you buy or think that is yours came to be all by itself without the contact of another person. Even if you go off grid to the woods and grow your own food. I would guess that the axe you use was made by someone else unless you use a stone axe. Therefore, Grizzly Adams YOU do not have to help with society and chip in for health care.

  • that is bs

  • We have the right to create any kind of government we want. Right to address grievances. Our grievance as it has been from the time the first European set foot on this continent IS The RICH get richer while the POOR get poorer, and it happens with schemes from swindles to ponzis. It's time to read the history of the LABOR movement PEOPLE WAKE UP. first the land then the food, housing, wages and now our HEALTH!!!

  • The argument about rationing goes like this according to the video.

    You ask, how will the government not be able to ration. Answer: Insurance companies already ration.

    Question 2: How is government rationing any better than insurance rationing?

    Question 3: If the Canadian, UK and other care mentioned in this film is not the same as the public option - why use it as an argument for it? There are countries with the same type of systems which also are bad. Why not mention them also?

  • the first one was better, you just need to lower the volume on the music a little.

  • too bad the people who need to see this never will, but that's why we have the greatest "democracy" in the world

  • hey, thanks for putting this vid online... it explains a lot, I wish more people were listening.
