But the rest of us...?<br /><br />HERE ARE SOME FACTS:<br /><br />The U.S. spends vastly more per capita for health care than most other countries.<br /><br />Despite spending so much our life expectancy rates are poor compared to these other nations.<br /><br />American infants die at much higher rates than infants in 12 European countries and Japan. Shockingly, the U.S. ranked 26th overall among industrialized countries on this measure.<br /><br />On a study released in 2007, the US ranked near the bottom on quality, access and efficiency in delivering health care - as compared to Australia, Canada, Germany and New Zealand.<br /><br />The GOP gasbags and hate radio talkers who are trying to prevent serious health care reform are not only out of touch with the people they supposedly care about - but they are out of touch with reality.<br /><br />Please call your Rep and Senator's office and demand a STRONG public health care option. <br /><br />There is so much Insurance lobbying here that they will not willingly do the right thing without voter pressure.<br /><br />Right now, anti-health care lobbyists are spending $1,500,000.00 per day. This will go much higher as congress approaches a vote.<br /><br />However, those Congresscritters do fear the loss of your vote...and that is your power.<br /><br />Let 'em know (repeatedly and loudly) what you want!My Painting Studiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10328762840797167158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1703068576156001254.post-9761441478955407852009-07-13T04:43:28.056-04:002009-07-13T04:43:28.056-04:00What country is this again?
