Health Care for America Now

We have 10 questions we're hoping members of the media will ask America's Health Insurance Plans, the insurance industry front group, tomorrow morning when AHIP presents their new plan.

If we want to win health care reform, we have to not only prove the insurance industry and the right-wing of this country wrong, we have to make them untrustworthy.

Health care reform is a vital part of rebuilding the economy and expanding America's middle class. We have to do it now -- precisely because economic times are so tough.

Instead of working to guarantee health care for those without insurance, conservatives want to tax the health benefits of the 160 million people who get insurance on the job.

We know that no matter what language the insurance industry uses, they are fundamentally against health care reform. They are working against the American people, and everyone knows it.

Labor Day traditionally marks the start of the election season. This year is certainly no different, but the stakes are much higher than they've been in a long time.

That's right. John Goodman's solution to the health care crisis in America is to change the definition of "uninsured" so that magically, everyone is covered.

Something seemed strange. Could it really be that the average American voter is more progressive on universal health care than the average MoveOn member?

A new form of grassroots involvement: highly secretive listening tours where no one but their best friends are invited to come. Cool.

In search of a supposedly politically viable plan, the coalition has surrendered in advance on the only overhaul that will actually cure the disease: a single-payer, mproved Medicare for all reform.

HCAN is right that we must mobilize a massive citizens' movement for universal healthcare. Where they're mistaken is in trying for a compromise that will never work.

It's fantastic to see Health Care for America Now taking a confrontational posture. It suggests an understanding of how power and movements have worked -- and not worked -- in US history.
