Starting June 29th, the launch day of the SiCKO documentary, nurses, doctors and other health care practitioners are launching a national campaign to urge support for a shift to a universal health care system. They'll be handing out flyers and recruiting people to support a campaign to shift America away from its current greed-based system of medicine to one that offers universal health care to everyone.

Universal health care is a system where the government provides taxpayer-funded health care to all citizens in the nation, with no exceptions, no pre-existing conditions, no application forms and no service denials. Services are usually paid for by tax dollars or employer contributions that go into a government-administered health care fund. Nearly all advanced nations use this system today, as it removes the profiteering, greed, monopoly pricing and most of the paperwork surrounding health care services. It also eliminates a tremendous amount of stress and worry among the population, greatly enhancing the quality of life of that nation's citizens.

Canada relies on universal health care. So does the U.K., France, Japan, Taiwan and even Cuba, as is pointed out in the SiCKO movie by Michael Moore. Only the United States remains steeped in health care corruption, stuck in a system of greed, run by corporations who are out to make a profit, not to make people well. (And disease pays big bucks, by the way. That's why conventional medicine today has no real interest in preventing disease or curing disease. There's only a focus on treating symptoms and keeping patients addicted to pharmaceuticals for life.)

NaturalNews fully supports universal health care. While the thought of government running health care is rather horrifying, the only thing scarier is the thought of greedy corporations running health care. I'd much rather have health care left up to incompetent bureaucrats than scheming profiteers who have no ethics. The very idea that drug companies and insurance companies are right now profiting from disease and sickness is bewildering. Shouldn't health care be more concerned about the health of the people than the profits of the wealthy elite?

As I said in a previous article, no nation that neglects the health of its people can expect to have a future. America's current system of medicine has clearly abandoned the needs of its people while protecting the profits of influential corporations who run health care today (Big Pharma, insurance companies, hospitals and so on). The end result of all this is now becoming obvious: A collapse of America's health and wealth. Our future is looking increasingly like a future of rampant disease and widespread medical bankruptcy. But it's not too late to stop this from happening. Adopting universal health care now could save us from the national health care disaster now brewing.

If we do nothing and accept the status quo, continuing to financially exploit our sick while denying basic health care services to nearly 50 million Americans, our future is not in doubt: The United States of America will find itself ruined, diseased and bankrupt, with no way out. See my popular health care fable Welcome to the Town of Allopath for a fictional description of how this might work. (Yes, I'm the original author of the Town of Allopath fable. Other websites have used the story for various purposes, but I'm the one who wrote it.)
