AHIP Hears the Single Payer Message Loud and Clear Again

Posted by Donna Smith - S... on March 10, 2009 - 5:45pm

 

CNA/NNOC has been hot on the trail of America's Health Insurance Plans (AHIP) executives for a long time.  Since we marched in San Francisco on June 19th, 2008, with thousands, to the front of the Capital Hilton in our hazmat suits in Washington, DC, in late September 2008, to the cold winds of Chicago and that Magnificent Mile march to the AHIP meeting there in November 2008, we have taken the message forward:  We want healthcare not for-profit health insurance for everyone in this nation.

And watch this video to see newly elected Congressman Eric Massa of New York, tell the story once again, today - March 10th, 2009, in front of the Ritz Carlton Hotel in Georgetown, where AHIP heard us yet again.

Diet and it's impact on health

Submitted by Alabama John on March 11, 2009 - 3:22pm.

Since 1979 I have not spent a penny on health care or health insurance, not for my self or the family of five that I raised. For though I eat out of the supermarket, my diet is unprocessed food, nothing processed by man or animal, whole food as grown with none of the bulk, fiber, vitamins or minerals refined out.

Our medical industry is fully aware that a rich diet is the root cause of 95% of illness in America, and that is why no doctor is requires to take a course in nutrition.

The biggest objection to single-payer health care is the middleclass not wanting to help pay the medical costs of the 70% laboring class, as they have the most unhealthy jobs, eat the most junk food, and have the worst health.

If we could some how reward those who switch to a healthy lifestyle, those who give up drinking, smoking, junk food and whatever, this I believe would solve the problem and make us the healthiest nation on earth.
