Re: Group Health, Poster Child.

I'll be on KUOW's The Conversation this noon hour talking about whether Group Health is really the right model for national health care reform. That's 94.9 FM starting... now.

Please explain that the co-op proposal means the government is just giving seed money to fund new private insurance companies. Nobody new gets covered, nobody gets better coverage. The only change is that your employer might get one new option for what private insurance they offer you.

You haven't explained this so far.

lizzie is right.

Look, two-thirds - actually almost three-quarters - of American citizens WANT a single payer national health care system.

But Maria's not standing up for the citizens.

She's standing up for Big Pharma and Big Insurance.
