Increasing the Corporate Grip - Failing the People on Health Care‏

On the Counterpunch website Ralph Nader is critical of the health care proposals carried by the US House of Representatives which now require Senate approval. ‘House Democrats were determined to pass any bill with a nice sounding name, such as "The Affordable Health Care for America Act". Single payer, full Medicare for all was never on the table even though a majority of citizens, physicians and nurses support that far more efficient, free choice of health care professionals, system.’
