"Obama ain't takin' 'way my employer-supplied health insurance!"

Anybody opposing health care reform because he likes his employer-supplied plan and feels reform is a threat to it might want to read and digest this blog.  Employer-supplied health care has been disappearing from the economy for years, slowly and gradually.  The fact is, that if you take out public employees of one kind or another, significantly less than half of all employees get their health insurance from their employers.  And those who do, that insurance has been getting more expensive and less comprehensive every year.  Employers are passing on more costs, and purchasing inferior plans.  This trend will continue regardless of the outcome of reform (well, except for a single-payer system, but then who would care?  We'd all have health care anyway).

Have a good read.

And you know another thing?  The majority of doctors, and their primary national association (the AMA, ever heard of it?) SUPPORT single-payer.

Medicare for all.

Doctors want it.

Patients want it.

It will never pass Congress.

Because the insurance lobby has the most money.

Hmmmmmm.
