CNN and FOX News Finally Report on Rick Scott
uploaded by SEIU at youtube.com
After airing CPR's misleading, inaccurage "swift-boat" ads against health care reform, CNN and FOX News are finally asking the hard questions of Rick Scott. We need to make sure everyone who sees his ads on television also sees the truth about Rick Scott - that his own company had to fire him to repair the damage he had done. http://action.seiu.org/page/invite/RickScott
SHADY
uploaded by HealthCareForAmerica at youtube.com
Health Care for America Now (HCAN) the nations largest health care campaign launched a new television ad today detailing anti-reform front man Rick Scotts dubious past in the health care industry. The former CEO of Columbia/Hospital Corporation of America was forced to resign in 1997, and Columbia/HCA agreed to pay $1.7 billion in fines and penalties the largest fraud settlement in US history. The hospital corporation pleaded guilty to a litany of criminal and civil charges including lying to the government about how sick patients were so they could collect larger fees. Now Scott is using his own personal fortune amassed during those years to attack President Obamas health care proposals with false claims and recycled scare tactics. Scott formed a group called Conservatives for Patients Rights and is advertising on national cable outlets like CNN and Fox. While some press have mentioned Scotts past in covering his new multimillion dollar ad push, too many continue to ignore the agenda behind the expenditure.

President Obama quotes Richard Kirsch, "We can't have a false dichotomy between coverage and costs."
uploaded by HealthCareForAmerica at youtube.com
In his closing remarks at the health care summit, President Obama reminded the attendees, "With respect to the cost of care, Richard Kirsch with the Health Care for America Now said that we can't have a false dichotomy between coverage and costs, that by covering more people we can also lower costs at the same time, presumably because those who are not insured at the moment are ending up using extraordinarily expensive emergency room care."
President Obama on Health Care - February 25th, 2009
uploaded by HealthCareForAmerica at youtube.com
In his first joint address to Congress, President Obama stated health care reform won't wait another year. Join Obama in the fight for health care reform at http://www.healthcareforamericanow.org Full transcript: The cost of our health care has weighed down our economy and the conscience of our nation long enough. This is a cost that now causes a bankruptcy in America every thirty seconds. By the end of the year, it could cause 1.5 million Americans to lose their homes. In the last eight years, premiums have grown four times faster than wages. And in each of these years, one million more Americans have lost their health insurance. It is one of the major reasons why small businesses close their doors and corporations ship jobs overseas. And its one of the largest and fastest-growing parts of our budget. Given these facts, we can no longer afford to put health care reform on hold. This budget...includes an historic commitment to comprehensive health care reform a down-payment on the principle that we must have quality, affordable health care for every American. Its a commitment thats paid for in part by efficiencies in our system that are long overdue. And its a step we must take if we hope to bring down our deficit in the years to come. Now, there will be many different opinions and ideas about how to achieve reform, and that is why Im bringing together businesses and workers, doctors and health care providers, Democrats and Republicans to begin work on this issue next week. I suffer no illusions that this will be an easy process. It will be hard. But...let there be no doubt: health care reform cannot wait, it must not wait, and it will not wait another year.
