Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders offered an interesting and thoughtful commentary in the Christian Science Monitor, outlining word-for-word the Democrats' agenda and core values in the health care debate.
Sen. Sanders explains:
But one could easily suggest the opposite. It is in the interest of insurers to provide quality care lest their profits fall.
While fundamentally incorrect, Sen. Sanders is to be admired for his candor. The Dems real agenda is to move America toward universal, nationalized health care as quickly as possible - before anyone realizes what has happened.
Sen. Sanders explains:
The main reason we get such bad results is that the function of private health insurance companies is not to provide quality health care for all, but to make huge profits for those who own the companies.The Senator's premise is that profitability and quality care are anathema to one another.

I love this quote from the article: "Our current private health insurance system is the most costly, wasteful, complicated, and bureaucratic in the world." You know, I think the problem most conservatives and moderates have with his approach is that you could take out the words "private health insurance system" and put in "federal government," and the quote would still be 100% correct. I worked inside the US Government for a year and a half; why should the American people trade one costly, wasteful, complicated bureaucracy for another?
I love this thanks
