The video tells it like it really is, without the blinders. The private insurers decide who lives and who dies- not the government. The private insurers determine whether you are worthy of being insured based on a pre-existing condition, not the government. Finally, the private insurers, not the government, choose not to insure individuals with the same or similar policies that large corporations are able to obtain.

Why are these death panels being defended over the health of the American people? If we forget the public option, how many of you wuld be willing to require that all health companies be required to offer uniform policy coverage based on premium payments rather than corporate affiliation?

(Of course, I'm still keeping in tort reform, to avoid defensive medicine. And reforms of Medicare, VA benefits, and Medicaid to keep them from collapsing in debt.)

But seriously, would any of you support an across the board premium level? It would keep insurance under private profit-makers, executives could still keep their multi-million dollar salaries, but still allow everyonw in the U.S. to buy insurance on an even playing field.
