Health Insurance American-Style--Paying Out The Nose And Taking It Up The . . .

For shear balls, you just can't beat the health insurance industry in this country.
Approximately 20% of its capital is spent on self-promotion-- currently directed toward a desperate frenzy of lobbying against any form of government-assisted universal health care.
In other words: 2 out of every 10 dollars paid in health-insurance premiums is not going for medical care but for fighting efforts to provide the sort of sensible health care enjoyed by every other civilized nation on earth.
We can no longer tolerate a system this corrupt--we just can't.
