Extremely predictable

This week, the President has really gone after a health care solution for the country, that's for sure.

His You Tube video last Saturday kicked it off and it's been a steady drumbeat ever since.

God bless him.

We need this and his solution badly.

Unfortunately, corporate America and a lot of doctors, at minimum, want nothing of it.

The absolutely don't want to kill their gravy train that is unrestrained price increases in the current system.

But it's killing us and it's killing the system.

It's broken. It doesn't work.

Millions of us have little or no coverage.

The mortality rate in the United States is rated number 37 in a worldwide ranking.

But don't tell some Americans that.

Corporate America has convinced them that the last thing they want is "Socialized medicine."

Well, I have news for them--"Capitalist medicine" isn't working, by a long shot. It's health care for the wealthy.

Anyway, the American Medical Association (AMA) came out this week, firmly against the President's plan.

No surprise. No surprise at all. This is to be expected.

The last thing they want to do is restrict their ability to make hundreds of thousands--or millions--of dollars, all on their patient's backs.

We need to get behind this remake of the American health care system, folks.
