Special Interest that has profited by the status quo has misled the American people to believe that market discipline can cure our health care woes.  Nothing could be further from the truth, as we have seen for-profit fail us.  Other industrialized countries have not failed and they are good examples on how to obtain a quality health care system.  Nearly all of them provide free education for their health care providers, which insures a supply of qualified health care providers.  This web site is dedicated to supply updated information to help America to come to a consensus, to write your congressman, and demand a National Health Care Plan.

Is Health Care a Human Right? In any decent society health care is a human right.  The right to essential health care is implied in our constitution, and compassion, especially for those that are suffering for lack of health care, should be in the hearts of every American.  Continued on page 1.
