(Photo from Gary Friedman / Los Angeles Times) Hilda Sarkisyan is one of the many people who can tell you how evil the health insurance industry have become But hey, that is the CIGNA way ! I am pissed. What kind of people work for the murder by spreadsheet industry? I guess denying claims day after day, knowing people will suffer, and in some cases, even die, dehumanizes them. But this story is amazing: Surrounded by supporters, Hilda Sarkisyan marched into Cigna Corp.’s Philadelphia headquarters on a chilly fall day, 10 months after the company refused to pay for a liver transplant for her daughter. snip Cigna employees, looking down into the atrium lobby from a balcony above, began heckling her, she said, with one of them giving her "the finger." LA Times The Cigna way. Giving a finger to a mother whose daughter died while they play a massive part in that happening. Bastards if there ever were.

It would be very beneficial to me since this happens just in case Democrats screw their own principles and the people of this nation : Yesterday, the Senate Finance Committee voted down both the Rockefeller and Schumer amendments, which would have added a public insurance plan to the committee’s bill. As the Wall Street Journal reports, shares in health insurers Humana and UnitedHealth shot up following the votes: Shares of companies that operate private health plans turned higher or trimmed losses in afternoon trading Tuesday after a Senate committee rejected an amendment that would have created a government-run insurance option. Humana Inc. (HUM) shares, which had been down earlier, were recently up 1% at $38.41. UnitedHealth Group Inc. (UNH) shares gained 3 cents to $25.83. To them, their health care heroes are Max Baucus, Kent Conrad, Blanche Lincoln , all the other sellout Democrats, and the Republicans of course.

The health insurance company CEO's, that's who. No one, not even the prodigious likes of Bill Moyers or Rachel Maddow (and you could include Keith Olbermann, even though Keith doesn't do those type of one on one interviews though) have given these people a chance. A chance to explain how they have the power to make Senators Baucus and Conrad happily bend over backwards to them in exchange for some nice campaign pay along with good vacation money. A chance to explain why they like to give the thumbs up to the most unmoral thing possibly on the entire planet Earth right now. A chance to explain why they hate you, and your family, and your friends. It amazes me how no one has grilled these cheats. They are just as shameful as the Gall Street cronies who screwed the nation over with the CDS's and all the other backroom gambling deals they had going on. In fact, to me, they are probably worse because they facilitate in the process of someone's health deteriorating to a p...

Lying commercials like this one make me angry. Very angry. It just shows how dishonest and sickening, categorically sickening, those who want to hault health care reform in this country really are. This ad, just like the one's in the 90's, and all throughout history, are the perfect exhibit at seeing the irrational and uncaring advocates of our ludicrous health care system we have in America now. They will stop at nothing to dispense aspersions galore, all over your televisions screen, all over your desktops or laptops, and even all over your phone. "Teh scary Canadian health care." Hell, I'm shocked that they haven't even embarked on a "Scary British Health Care" commercial or, even worse, "TEH SCARIER FRENCH HEALTH CARE" ad. You know, it has been proven time and time again, and shown by economists and just fully rational people in general, that single payer would be the ultimate difference maker for our economy, let alone greatly improvin...

"Class warfare" he calls the "House Health Care Bill." President Nelson speaks : Sen. Ben Nelson (D-Neb.), whose vote will be critical to passing a final healthcare reform bill through the Senate, condemned the House version of the bill, which institutes a surtax on wealthy Americans to finance the $1 trillion bill, as creating "class warfare." "I think it's a devastating blow," Nelson said of the import of the CBO analysis this week that the House healthcare reform proposal would worsen the fiscal situation of the U.S. over time. As Ms.Hamsher points out The only way we get a public plan is if progressives take a stand and refuse to "compromise" with Ben Nelson over something 76% of the public wants. And read the rest of that post from Ms. Hamsher. The insurance industry is going nuts right now. They are scared that their days of thinking about their money instead of people's lives maybe over. And they are doing everything in ...
