>  GUARANTEED, UNIVERSAL, SINGLE-PAYER HEALTHCARE NOW!
>  
>  Join nurses, doctors, patients and Americans of every stripe protesting in
>  memory of the countless victims of the insurance industry. Protests are
>  being held around the country on a day when 38,000 health insurance
>  lobbyists are having their annual convention in San Francisco. Join the
>  protest against Cigna, one of the merciless health insurance giants that
>  deny care every day, including the recently publicized denial of a

>  OUR HEALTHCARE SYSTEM IS _NOT WORKING_
>  
>  Over 47 million are uninsured; millions more inadequately covered. Yet,
>  the U.S. health system spends a higher portion of its gross domestic
>  product than any other country but ranks 37 out of 191 countries in its
>  performance, according to the World Health Organization.
>  
>  IT\'S TIME FOR GUARANTEED, COMPREHENSIVE HEALTHCARE FOR ALL
>  
>  Universal, single-payer healthcare would replace profit-driven insurance
>  companies with a single public agency (like Medicare) that would distribute
>  healthcare dollars to _private_ healthcare providers. It cuts out the
>  middlemen: private insurance companies that waste huge amounts of our
>  healthcare dollars on things that have nothing to do with care: overhead,
>  underwriting, billing, sales and marketing departments as well as huge
>  profits and exorbitant executive pay. It is due time to take insurers'
>  hands off our healthcare and create a humane system with guaranteed
>  coverage for all.
