Mad As Hell Doctors: Eliminate health insurance and everyone wins
Yesterday the Mad as Hell Doctors stopped in Mankato and St. Paul, two of the 26 cities where the doctors are putting on rallies to generate support for a single payer system. If the rally at the state capitol is an indication, the doctors are getting a warm welcome while they spread their serious message.

1. Hadn't heard of this before.
Hope it's not too little, too late.

4. L.A. SinglePayer Rally in Support of Mad as Hell Drs 9/30 Hlwd & Highland
WHITE RIBBON SINGLE PAYER RALLY For Universal Health Care
Wed Sept. 30th 6pm-8pm

NW Corner of the Intersection of Hollywood & Highland

SUPPORT THE MAD AS HELL DOCTORS!

We will be passing out white ribbons to the press, to
pedestrians & drivers-by, as the Mad As Hell Doctors will
be doing upon their arrival in D.C. on the same day,
requesting an audience with President Obama to promote a
Single Payer Plan.
 
BRING SIGNS & WHITE RIBBONS ~ SCRUBS & LAB COATs

Radiation Oncologist Paul Y Song, recently interviewed on
Larry King Live, and Matt Hendrickson, MD MPH, will be among
our speakers. 
Medical professionals and students, politicians, celebrities,
entertainers and citizens, please contact Kristin or Teri if
you would like to speak about a single payer plan or our
current health care system that puts profit before people.

SINGLE PAYER IS THE SOLUTION. WE DEMAND IT NOW.

The "Public Option" is a trap. What we need is real
reform that finds immediate savings, controls costs, and
accomplishes the moral imperative of true Universal Access. A
single-payer plan is the only real path to a Health Care
System that is socially, ethically and fiscally responsible.

TIE ONE ON FOR SINGLE PAYER!
The White Ribbon is the new national symbol for the Single
Payer Movement. 
Wear one and tie white ribbons in your local community!
