In 1964, I was flying with several companions to the Massachusetts Democratic Convention when our small plane crashed and burned short of the runway. My friend and colleague in the Senate, Birch Bayh, risked his life to pull me from the wreckage. Our pilot, Edwin Zimny, and my administrative assistant, Ed Moss, didn't survive. With crushed vertebrae, broken ribs, and a collapsed lung, I spent months in New England Baptist Hospital in Boston. To prevent paralysis, I was strapped into a special bed that immobilizes a patient between two canvas slings. Nurses would regularly turn me over so my lungs didn't fill with fluid. I knew the care was expensive, but I didn't have to worry about that. I needed the care and I got it..........

What is it with the wealthy, and the politicians that support them, Both Parties, that they don't get the point, on pure economics, of a healthy society, workforce and those born to grow into, that they would reap much more in steady wealth that a universal health care system would cost, and those cost shared would even go down.

Where is the reasoning for Not having a National Health Care System that covers All?
As long as this country has argued, not debated, this important issue I've never understood that certain segments argument against, except that they are defending the drug companies, insurance companies, high end investors and others bottom lines of increased profits and dictation of what is covered. Which in the end has been hurting them, even though they are making more and more, because having huge numbers of the Nations Citizens not covered or under covered causes the work force to not be as productive, as they are expected to be, thus causing them to have a lower morale in their workplace if suffering from ailments that need, but can't be sought, care. It also can cause problems with those to young to work but approaching the workforce age. And much more can be added related to a so called capitalistic ideology.
In the end, but for a few reaping profits from their control of a system of need and rights, without a healthy society everything within suffers from the ailments outside of health, everything!
