Why do people keep blaming the insurance companies for whats wrong with health care?
Health insurance companies are just middle men. We don’t want health insurance, we want health CARE. The business of health insurance companies is to make money for their investors, not to provide health care. In fact, the less health care they provide, the more money they make. There is something fundementally wrong with our health care system. And the Republicans only answer is to leave it alone. The US is ruled by powerful interest groups who control politicians with campaign contributions. Our real rulers are an oligarchy of financial and military/security interests and AIPAC. Our government has wasted $3,000,000,000,000–three thousand billion dollars–on two wars that have no benefit whatsoever for any American whose income does not derive from the military/security complex, about which five-star general President Eisenhower warned us years ago.
