If you listen to the conservatives' drivel about single payer health care, you'd think every other person in Europe and Canada was dropping dead in the streets. If it were true, there'd be more deaths across Europe now than during the time of the plague ("Throw out your dead!")

Ask why, among all the supposedly 'modern' nations, we alone are being held hostage by private insurance companies and their exorbitantly high prices for care and pharmaceuticals. And if you're worried about paying for it, take heart in the fact you're already footing the bill for the Iraqis and Afghans.
