The health care thing; a few loose ends

The health care thing; a few loose endsTrudy Lieberman bringing it every time:

1) Was a public plan ever really in the cards?

2) Who will be at the table? (part XIV)

3) Who will be at the table? (the whole sad story).

4) Nicholas Kristof interviews one of the originators of the “Block Socialized Medicine” shitbomb (he feels bad about it now). Homeboy also spilled his guts to The Hill.

5) Robert Reich thinks the public option may have one last chance. Maybe.

6) Paul Krugman examines healthcare in the civilized world (if only we were part of it).

7) A short piece on how insurance companies revoke coverage of sick people, just because they can.

After all, it’s the health of the shares we really care about. The patients can go screw.

8) Not that there’s any shortage of money in the health care industry; Bloomberg reports there are SIX lobbyists per federal lawmaker, hard at work screwing you.

9) Krugman again, on why the “bipartisan” thing is so much BS. Personally, I think the idea of any bipartisan agreement with Republicans has the same chance as decent, law-abiding people reaching agreement with the Mafia. Just in case you didn’t know where I stand on this.

10) “Thousands Line Up For Promise Of Free Health Care.” God bless the people who set this up.

How the Republicans, the healthcare industry, and several well-connected astroturf lobbying goups organized the howling reactionary zombies.
