Rep. John Conyers introduced HR 676, the United States National Health Care Act, in 2009. It is supported by a large majority of doctors and other health care professionals who must take valuable time away from treating their patients to wrangle with health insurance companies that have taken away any decision making power from them and who have effectively taken over our health care system, not to care for patients, but to reap record profits for their shareholders. The words "profit" and "health care" do not belong in the same sentence. Health is not a commodity to be bought and sold on the open market. Nobody should profit from someone's else's misfortune of being sick or getting hurt. No family should have to worry about going broke as a result of a medical issue. Single payer now!
