For 30 years or more, the Right Wing in America has done it's best to divert BILLIONS of taxpayer money to Large Corporations, Insurance Companies, Pharmaceutical Companies, Banks, Hedge Funds, Military Contractors ... and Wealthy, Connected Individuals.
Why?
Because they ALL had powerful lobbyists working on their behalf.
Meanwhile, the middle class has been used as a giant piggy bank from which the above entities were free to extract as much money as possible - with NO repercussions.
In essence, the Right Wing adopted an Ideology that PROTECTED those I've highlighted in Bold above.
This Ideology created an unsustainable situation. Without an economically healthy Middle Class - everything collapses like a house of cards in a stiff wind.
Providing Health Care to the Middle Class is the ONE solution that will shore up our entire economy.
- It will stop the thousands of home foreclosures every year due to families incurring astonishing hospital bills for unforeseen illness.
- It will help small businesses who are truly suffering under the weight of HUGE health insurance costs for their employees - permitting our manufacturing sector ... for the first time ... compete on a level playing field with other nations.
- It will stave off the death of Americans for simply not having insurance - as an estimated 20,000 die each year as a direct result of not having insurance.
- It's the right thing to do.
It's time to protect OUR CITIZENS ... the way Government has protected the privileged for the past 30 years.
