America's current health care system is outdated, inadequate, costly and
morally corrupt. Here's why . . .
it practices health care apartheid by only providing full health care for the wealthy
it avoids caring for sick people to maximize corporate profits
it allows 18,000 of our fellow citizens to die every year from a lack of available health
care
it allows people to die while being transported between hospitals because their insurance isn't
valid at a particular hospital
the World Health Organization ranks the United States as one of the worst of 34 industrialize
nations in infant mortality rates, preventable deaths and other health care indicators
our current health care system spends 30% of its healthcare dollars on administration and
insurance company profits, when other, smaller nations, spend less than 2%
our current health care system is responsible for over 50% of the personal bankruptcies, the
majority by people who HAD healthcare insurance
our current health care system makes our businesses uncompetitive and forces them to open
factories in other nations
our current health care system prevents our nation's largest employer, independent small
businesses, from providing healthcare at a competitive price with large corporations
things are not getting better; they're getting worse; many experts, health care professionals,
and citizens now believe we are facing a health care crisis in our county
Help us make this happen!
