This time it is actually plain and clear to many more people what the game is.
The corporate interests do not really care how many of us want a single payer plan or a public option.
They will make it LOOK as though we don't. The media whoreds will write the editorials ,slant the coverage, ignore the facts and tell us what we REALLY want.
Mobs will be hired and the media coverage will play it up just as they play down and ignore protests from progressives. Polls will be shown to say something they do not really say. The paid off politicians will explain why the very thing we elected them to do is completely impractical. We will end up being made by law to buy health insurance from the very people who would have you and your loved ones dead in the name of more profits for themselves.
And it will be declared a great victory.
But we will know better just as those who had to deal with medicare plan D know better. Just as those who deal with the insurance death profits telling us we cannot have government screwing up their health care, know what elegant piles of drivel they spew. Just as we know the piles of paper nightmares we are all filling out whenever we are sick could not be worse under a single payer plan then they are now. In this world where those who write the laws are allowed to have the same coverage they deem too expensive for us.
We will know and they will know we know.
That is a very dangerous set of circumstances.
We will see clearly it does not matter if their products contain poisons or are completely untested of if we could get them cheaper in another country or if we are dying..
As long as they get our money. When countries set to plunder and kill people in the name of profit its called war.
In this country when corporations do it its called free market capitalism.
I call it war.
War apon the people.
