Baucus's Raucous Caucus: Doctors, Nurses and Activists Arrested Again for Protesting Exclusion of Single-Payer Advocates at Senate Hearing on Healthcare

Advocates of single-payer universal healthcare—the system favored by most Americans—continue to protest their exclusion from discussions on healthcare reform. On Tuesday, five doctors, nurses and single-payer advocates were arrested at a Senate Finance Committee hearing, bringing the total number of arrests in less than a week to thirteen. We speak with two of those arrested: Single Payer Action founder Russell Mokhiber and Dr. Margaret Flowers of Physicians for a National Health Program. [includes rush transcript]

So true. Next will come Obama calling for all in the USA to purchase health insurance and mandate all business provide it from one of the CARTELS known as Health Insurance Companies.

The 1.1 billion dollars that William McGuire received as a golden parchute when he was forced to resign from United Health (after making 1.6 billion in a back dating stock options scandal), says it all. We don't have a free market system, we have Fascism.Most elected officals have sold out to various CARTELS.

i want to inform all black americans and poor americans that think they are going to benefit from govt controlled healthcare that there is also a policy that will be put into full effect known as "soft kill." the president is well aware of this. it has to do with early deaths of peoples, and in particular peoples of the black race. i guess that is change you can count on. wake the fuck up

First of all, condolences for the passing of your friend. Though I don't know either you or your friend, I sincerely feel sad for a passing that could have been prevented. I would have a question for you though. What really caused the passing of your friend? Wasn't it really a lack of organs. What was that list based on? Again, condolences, hoping for an even better system to be established.

Dual citizenship friend was on waiting list for Canadian prostate operation. Cancer was fast growing, he was 40, Died before even got anywhere near the top of list. Nice Universal system, weeds out the weak.? Many Canadian Doctors and professional healthcare workers come to USA to work in any system that pays more. Causes a shortage of Dr's in Canada. Result, waiting lists for Dr's and facilities. Solution not simple as most people think. Remove Tort law Parasitic Drag for a start? DaFlikkers
