The most important piece of legislation in America today, with nearly 100 cosponsors in the house, H.R.676 is the only health care bill that will truly reform our tragically broken health care system. This is the bill that your insurance company doesn't want you to know about. This is the bill that presidential candidates (except Kucinich) are afraid to talk about, presumably because they like to keep getting campaign contributions from the insurance industry. What would you think about a health care system that actually works for everybody, costs billions of dollars less, provides greater coverage, truly protects you from financial ruin due to medical bills, improves quality, increases innovation, and returns medical decisions to you and your doctor instead of some claims adjuster at an insurance company 1,000 miles away. 31 cents of every health care dollar spent is wasted on administrative expenses and insurer profits in the US system. This is why the US spends double what other industialized nations spend on health care yet has worse outcomes. We need to save that money and spend it on better health care for you, me, and all Americans. Our system is sick and dying, and this is the cure. This footage was take primarily from Congressional testimony given earlier in 2007. To support H.R.676, contact your congressman.

I am all for HR 676 which is universal single payer health care for everyone. However, there also has to be an Amendment Proposal to the Constitution of the United States which should state that health care is a civil and human right for everyone within the borders of the United States.

I"m hope Obama just steps forward and gets it done ... this is ridiculous in this country ... were all tired of it ...

Michael Moore's film Sicko advocates single payor. Nader is for it, Obama is against it. And Yet, Moore supported Obama! Now he will try to pull Obama towards single payor...Hope you are successful (you have an uphill battle against the HMO and Pharmaceutical companies that lobby against it and contributed heavily to Obama's campaign...

One payer system is the only way to go. Private health insurance is a private tyranny that only exists in United States. It's a rather barbaric system that tells you you're health is only worth what you can afford. People in United States should get behind, and support, HR 676. If you don't know what it is learn about it! GM & Ford are going bankrupt because of the rising cost of health care. If United States had single-payer system, the companies wouldn't have to worry about it.

NADER/Gonzalez are for single-payer Health Care so ALL Americans will have it. > NO more PAY-or-DIE Healthcare $ystem! > 18,000 Americans WILL DIE next year who lack access to health care! > 47 Million Americans HAVE NO health care!

Equal health care is not a right, but you can argue that decent health care is. That Canadian system is pure Stalinist. You can't pay for private care because then you might get better care than your neighbor. Can't have that, no siree.

why dont they let taxpayers pay for their health care through their taxes like every industralized nation does this would be a feasible solution.
