Stand Up to Insurance Companies--Fight for Public Universal Healthcare

The insurance companies are ratcheting up their propaganda campaign against a single-payer universal public insurance program, or even a public option in the healthcare "reform" being debated in Congress.

Everyone should read and watch what former insurance company insider Wendell Porter says about the lies of the insurance companies:

Also, Senator Conrad is proposing that the government creates a Co-op health insurance company instead of a government plan. Hmm this sounds interesting, but I want to hear more about it. I still say a single payer option that is democratically run by the doctors, nurses, and patients is more porferrable.
