Re: Feb. 9 article, “Trump looks to stabilize health insurance market”
So, the “health” — read: profits — of the health insurance industry supersedes the human right of access to health care?
Left
out of the discussion is the real solution to this health care mess,
which would eliminate the health insurance industry: national public
health care based on the public education model. Publicly financed.
Publicly administered. Publicly delivered.
It makes more sense to
finance a network of publicly funded neighborhood and community health
care centers across the country dispensing free health care for everyone
instead of squandering the precious wealth of our nation maintaining
over 800 military bases dotting the globe protecting Wall Street’s
interests and wasting trillions of dollars on these dirty wars from
which only the Wall Street merchants profit.
