Medicare for All--six good reasons
Posted by: Doug Wiken - 10/24/2009 12:17 PM (current news, Health, Medicine, Insurance, politics)



A site has found some of the salaries of the bigwigs in the health insurance industry.  It appears these greedheads are very good reasons for Single Payer insurance of the kind George McGovern supported: "Extend Medicare to every US Citizen."

 

 

Insurance Executive Salaries

Our Congress Critters have spent the summer putting together a 1000 or more pages of a bill that does nothing but patch the corrupt health insurance industry with bandages designed to camouflage their excess, obscene greed so that not quite so many egregious denials of coverage exist.

The logic of all these patches does not lead logically to "a public option" as a pitiful small part of another huge industry subsidy, but rather to a public option as the only option allowed. Insurance companies can suck money out of us by providing supplemental coverage similar to those for current medicare program for those of us "lucky" enough to be over 65. Again,  Ask yourself:

  • Do you love your family?
  • Do you love your insurance company and these executives?
Take your pick.

** Stay tuned, and if you are bored, total up the salaries of the listed insurance company executives--- Doug Wiken
