So how can the US Government be the "ONLY PROVIDER" of Health Care?

The US government isn't the only provider of health care insurance. And they don't propose to be. Instead, they are installing a Fascist system whereby you are required to write a check to an insurance company every month. Of course, the insurance companies wrote the bill and intend to make billions from it.

You should call someone at MSNBC and let them know all this. Let me know how it goes. :)

As you know, the mainstream media is just a puppet for their advertisers, including Big Pharma and the insurance companies.

Big Pharma And Insurance Industry Lobby Heavily For Obamacare March 30th, 2010 Keith Johnson reports

Looks like we’ve been right all along. All the big K Street money pumped into the House and Senate has been overwhelmingly one-sided in favor of Obama’s horrendous new healthcare legislation. Go figure. According to a study released over the weekend by “The Center for Public Policy”, a non-partisan public interest think tank in Washington D.C., it is estimated that a record $120 million was spent lobbying for health reform. In addition to direct lobbying, some of the top firms also rewarded members of Congress with campaign contributions through political action committees and individual lobbyist donations. The largest of these firms, Patton Boggs LLP, contributed more than $55,000 almost exclusively to Democrats.

Patton Boggs represents Bristol-Myers Squibb, one of the largest pharmaceutical companies in the nation and the eighth largest corporation in the United States. On January 21, 2010, Patton Boggs was one of several big name health insurance, pharmaceutical and hospital lobbying organizations whose top executives got together to throw a fundraiser for Massachusetts Senatorial candidate Martha Coakley in hopes of landing her the Democratic seat and the crucial 60th vote needed to pass the healthcare takeover bill. The other top firms that participated (along with a list of the companies they represent) are as follows:

Capitol Hill Strategies:

Amgen—the nation’s largest biotechnology firm BIO—a muli million dollar biotechnology firm Merck—the largest pharmaceutical company in the world Pharmaceutical Researchers and Manufacturers of America– a trade group representing pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies

Grover Park Group:

Blue Cross—a federation of 39 health insurance organizations Pfizer—a pharmaceutical company, ranking number one in sales in the world

Duberstein Group:

Novartis—a pharmaceutical company ranking number one in revenues and three in sales Sanofi-Aventis—a pharmaceutical company that ranks number four in sales worldwide

Mehlman, Vogel, Castagnetti:

Humana—the fourth largest health insurance company in the United States Abbott Laboratories—a multi billion dollar pharmaceuticals healthcare company General Electric—multi billion dollar corporation dealing in many health related sectors

Elmendorf strategies:

UnitedHealth Group—the nations largest health insurance company

Heather Podesta & Partners:

Cigna—the nation’s fifth largest health insurance company Eli Lilly—a multi billion dollar pharmaceutical company that ranks tenth in sales

UnitedHealth Group—the nations largest health insurance company

Again I use a socialist co-worker as an object lesson: a few years ago we had several plans to choose from at work, I had United Healthcare and almost every day heard how evil they were from Idiot #1 (she also hates CSX railroad of all things, probably because they made money where Conrail faled miserably, and we don't have any connection at all to railroad industry).

Thank God I was recently prevented from participating in this evil plan, and now get to pay twice as much in monthly premiums and my copay tripled. Our HR department, in conjuction with Obama administration, was prolly worried all that extra money in my pocket would lead to gambling addiction or whatever it is people with too much money succumb to.
