Healthcare NOW! - Time to Start from Scratch

January 27, 2010 by Healthcare-NOW!, 28-01-2010 - 04:31

Time to Start from Scratch Southern Oregonians are pleased with the leadership of Healthcare NOW! Great to see this breath of fresh air at a time when the pit of reform is such a dramatic disaster--rogue imc vol..

We've heard President Obama assert during his campaign that if he were starting from scratch he would implement a single-payer plan. He recently stated: "I want to cover everybody. Now, the truth is unless you have what's called a single-payer system in which everyone's automatically covered, you're probably not going to reach every single individual." In addition, President Obama knows that we have to get the spiraling healthcare costs under control.

The current bills before the House and Senate can neither cover everyone nor make healthcare affordable. Only Improved Medicare for All, a national single payer plan such as HR 676, can do the job.
