		<description>1. Consumers take control of your own lives and money. Remember it is the medically insured that make up at least 50% of bankruptcies filed today due to health care that is not covered adequately. These insured only thought they were covered only now are losing the bulk of their personal assets.  REMEMBER it is our insurance system of today that WILL CANCEL when the going gets tough.

2. Another perfect example of why National Health Insurance is the only way to go. 

3. There are many reasons why consumers deserve 24/7 care no matter what. The INFLATED expense of treating cancer is but one = too much profit in the business of health care.

4. Pharmaceuticals operate with huge huge profit margins = consumers getting screwed.

5. The nations consumers could have excellent National Health insurance for all if one would remove: 

*elected officials as shareholders 
*special interest campaign funding 
*the insurance industry recklessly spending health care dollars to bribe votes

6. Why should consumers seeking health care be expected to support tons of shareholders and campaign contributions while making a health care visit?

7. Paying out of pocket and setting up health care savings accounts eliminates high dollar reckless spending on:

• the bureaucracy of over 1,500 insurance providers aka profiteers 
• obscene profits 
• high corporate salaries 
• advertising budgets 
* over charges = fraud and theft • sales commissions 
• Shareholders CERTAINLY increase the cost of insurance 
• Special interest campaign dollars 
* Golden parachutes 
* Politicians as shareholders

8. National Health Insurance WILL NOT walk away flipping a consumer the bird.</description>

		<description>The fines they are contemplating in the Senate will be taken from our income tax returns if we can&#039;t pay them. They don&#039;t understand we don&#039;t have any money. As long as the corporations are running the show, WE ARE SCREWED!</description>
