Hmo's kill through depraved indifference.
Mass murder in the pursuit of profit is not only the corporate policy in the Middle East, it is corporate policy in your neighborhood. The editorial pages and feature sections of our newspapers should be publishing probing analysis of just why we put up with this criminality that so threatens us and those we hold dear. Of course these measures, reporting actual news and providing accurate, intelligent comment, would be counter to the aims of our ruling class that, above all else, works to maintain a spell of invisibility for their actions.

1. I always attempt to simplify an idea
in order to better understand how to react to it, and the simple truth is...

HMO's exist to prevent the loss of money. HMO's are equivalent to loan sharks who work for one of the various mafia type organizations. They only have the veneer of respectability due to a combination of need and belief in the systems.

2. Yes, they do but the first HMO in the nation is a non-profit one and
I and my family belong to it. Does pretty good, my one daughter is severely disabled and they have given us everything we need for her, until *ss's drug program came along and the for profit drug program has started to deny her things. Fortunately, her doctors have lined up with us to fight for their patient.
