Health Care Reform

Private Health Insurance Companies = The MAFIA

Now that Bernie is making a timely pitch for Medicare For All, I thought I'd put some emphasis on an aspect of the health care debate that few people are aware of.

Thanks to their always clever public relations efforts plus the millions of $$ they throw at members of Congress, most people do not realize that there is almost no difference between the health insurance companies and the Mafia when it comes to the role they play in the industries they lord over.

Health Care Reform, Think Tank Style

Don't underestimate the power of the think tanks, institutions and lobbies in Washington to influence government policies and programs. Remember that Obamacare was partly a takeoff from a right wing Heritage Foundation plan.

The American Enterprise Institute (AEI) is a conservative, right wing think tank established in Washington in 1938 located on Think Tank Row. This is a scumbag organization made up of greedy, power hungry bastards.
