BROTHER, CAN YOU SPARE A DIME...

Ok, let's talk about health care:

With THE INTERNATIONALE playing softly in the background, I speak on behalf of SINGLE PAYER.

There are options that please the well off, the various interested corporations, the uncaring and the truly stupid, but SINGLE PAYER is the only plan that addresses the needs of all.

The "I'm all right Jack" attitude that self righteously condemns the lazy, the ignorant, and those in other ways undeserving, to survive as best they can is unworthy of any civilized nation.

Can anyone with a right conscience believe that the corporate executive whose concept of work is polishing his golf clubs is more deserving of care than the lettuce picker who sends part of her pay across the border for a nephew's school shoes?

Shame on us for even hesitating!
