...Without a doubt a bedrock fundamental issue that has to be made a reality for any genuine pro democracy reform to be successfully implemented at any level of our society, economy, and politics. Yesterday's radio program of democracynow.org was an eye opener. 2.2 trillion spent each year in this country on health care- that's $7 grand for every man woman and child and twice the per capita amount spent by any advanced developed nation yet we rank 37th in outcomes. Atrocious and a high crime. I would guess that 40% of what we spend or so is nothing more than the vig skimmed by the big time profiteers of the ponzi racket that they themselves have set up- truly gamed and rigged ponzi system that benefits big insurance, big pharma, the big hospital industry, along with all manner of public officials that are funded by those entities to ensure that the interests of those "profit centers" are protected rather than the health and security of the people, families and communities of this country.
