Dear
Congressman,
Re:
Health care
I have not
much to say today, except…
… to
express my bewilderment and sadness that this “great country” is still, to this
day, unable to come up with adequate provision for the genuine health needs of
its citizens. How is it that we are alone in this amongst the advanced
countries of the world, albeit the wealthiest of all of them?
Actually,
it is not so hard to explain. So long as health care is allowed to remain a
for-profit enterprise, there will be no solution other than one that accrues to
the benefit of insurers, drug companies and providers; and the indisputable fact
is that those most in need are the least able to pay. No blood, as they say,
from a stone.
Remove
profit from the equation, and you have your solution to the problem.
Respectfully,
Peter
Clothier, Ph.D.
