More healthcare news, June 12, 2009 from Bloomberg

This is an interesting story of how some of the insurance folks and their congressional buddies are in panic mode. The insurance companies are in the middle of a massive media blitz. Look for "anti healthcare reform" to be the major ad buyers in the coming months.

Also look for a less than objective media review healthcare reforms. After all, insurance companies, drug makers and the like are major players in the ad markets and they are major sources of revenue to radio, television and all outlets of media (except this one, who always has a hand out).

Also look for more than one congressfolk to side with these folks beyond the ones who already have announced "troubles" with upcoming proposed changes.

Time for those "multi-payer" folks to look for help from the single-payer folks if they wish change. a word of advice to those multi-payers: we single payer folks were not amused that you stacked the deck against proposals like HR676, not amused at all. In fact, the majority of the folks pushing for healthcare reform over the last few years were supporters of single-payer.

Good luck getting it thru congress without our active help.
