4. They've made it pretty clear already. The failure to communicate, if any exists, owes less to |
|
a supposed opacity in the attitudes & moves on their part, and much more to incomprehension on our part and a stupefied unwillingness to believe what our eyes are actually taking in.
We're. Being. Screwed.
Reform=screwjob to them. Crisis=opportunity. Their motives aren't "hidden". We just refuse to believe it could be true.

5. I think these proposals show where many of them stand, and some |
|
are just being non-committal at this point, sitting on the fence, scared to piss off their corporate donors.
There's little real reform going on, mostly tinkering with some of the issues. No real addressing the underlying problems on how we provide healthcare and who is benefitting (insurance extortion corporations).
Whatever passes will most likely be some watered-down, generally-acceptable to corps, unaffordable to regular people program that just adds to the complexity and multi-layered way we provide insurance-- not health CARE.
