Rangel: Health-Care Reform Needs $600 Million in New Taxes and Will Cost $1 Trillion

Now more than ever it is necessary to write letters to the editor and alert the public that this money is not to expand access to health care, it is to subsidise the failing business model of health insurance parasites.

Include the Single-Payer Perspective in Congressional Hearings on Healthcare

House Ways and Means Chairman Charles B. Rangel (D-NY) announced that the Committee will hold another hearing in a series on reforming the health insurance market.

The hearing will take place at 10:00 a.m. on Wednesday, April 22, and will focus on strategies to reform the health insurance market to ensure greater accessibility and affordability.

Charlie Rangel is one of our health care heros. That’s right, the Chair of the powerful Ways and Means committee supports single payer. Think of what that means to our movement!

All of a sudden Whoever kidnapped Joshua Micah Marshall is floating pseudo scandals. Who is feeding his publication this drivel? We have no way of knowing, but I suspect it is the same anonymous sources who are attacking Pete Stark.
