			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://i.ytimg.com/vi/QrqrjJGFIJc/2.jpg" align="left">What could be so bad if our <a href="http://www.theinsurancereport.com" target=_self>medical insurance</a> is able to finally have 100% access to all of our medical records&#8230; I mean they are trying to only help us&#8230; Right?</p>
<p>WRONG.</p>
<p>All the MII (Medical Insurance Industry) wants from us is our history of what we have, or had before being insured by them. So they can BETTER DENY US.</p>
<p>The could careless about making fewer mistakes, don&#8217;t give a crap about saving providers from making phone calls, and for sure will not in out lifetimes pass long the savings if any they claim they hope to make&#8230; To the employers, and the members&#8230; </p>
<p>DO NOT FOR ANY REASONS THINK THAT YOU DO NOT HAVE FULL ACCESS TO YOUR MEDICAL FILES NOW. </p>
<p>They stae they will make them online for you to access all the time&#8230; That means so can they as they now hold the records.</p>
<p>IGNORE the fact that Microsoft is partner, and realize no matter who is partner with the Medical Insurance Industry&#8230; Know one thing is going to happen.</p>
<p>FORCED ISOLATION.</p>
<p>That is the fact that the elderly and people with disabilities face everyday. And, now the medical insurance industry wants to do the same thing to all people who are covered.</p>
<p>Why do this? Think about it.</p>
<p>What better way to control people as in Uncle Sam here&#8230; Than to control access to health care?</p>
<p>If we are worried about out medical condition being covered by our medical <a href="http://www.theinsurancereport.com" target=_self>insurance</a> company&#8230; Guess what we will not notice&#8230; Being RAPED as a bail out is passed in the middle of night&#8230; Or as it is allowed full access to our Prescription HISTORIES&#8230; You may say, who cares. I changed my name&#8230; That&#8217;s just it, these medical companies will track down our records from birth if they can. They will use Social Securuty #&#8217;s to ID people and follow their life use of prescriptions. Not to make ourlives any easier.</p>
<p>To deny us the access to any and all medical service when we need it most.</p>
<p>And, what better tool to use to control as many people who think they are free as we in the USA? </p>
<p>Without access to health care&#8230; GAME OVER. PERIOD.</p>
<p>We can&#8217;t argue, we can fight and worse we have no idea what rights we have or don&#8217;t because we have been trained to trust the Government and companies around us&#8230; </p>
<p>Now it&#8217;s time to WAKE UP.</p>
<p>And, I will be posting direct to the point videos sharing what has been done, and looks to be done by the MII&#8230; </p>
<p>As we lemmings bend over and take it for all it&#8217;s worth&#8230; We are being RAPED.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://i.ytimg.com/vi/ozPUnghSusI/2.jpg" align="left">This video is a skit written by supporters of HR 676 the single payer national health <a href="http://www.theinsurancereport.com" target=_self>insurance</a> bill in Congress (John Conyers &#8211; Michigan).  All other industrialized countries have universal national health care.  Their medical costs are far less than ours are in the United States but their health outcomes are as good or better. </p>
<p>Americans have seen their <a href="http://www.theinsurancereport.com" target=_self>health insurance</a> premiums increase by 87% from 2000 to 2006 while their earnings only increased by 20% and the average rate of overall inflation was 18% during the same time period (Kaiser Family Foundation).</p>
<p>Why does your health care cost so much?</p>
<p>Data from the Institute for Health and Socio-Economic Policy show that:</p>
<p>1.  The top seven U.S. health insurers earned a combined $10 billion dollars &#8211; nearly triple their profits of 5 years earlier (Wall Street Journal, August 2006).</p>
<p>2.  In 2004 top executives of the 11 largest health insurers made a combined $85 million per year in one year (Weiss Reports).</p>
<p>3.  The 20 largest HMOs in the U.S. made $10.8 billion in profits in the fiscal year 2005.  12 top HMO executives pocketed $222.6 million in direct compensation in the fiscal year 2005.</p>
<p>4.  Dr. William McGuire, CEO of UnitedHealthcare had $1.6 billion in exercisable options at the end of 2005 (CBN News, Oct. 16, 2006) in addition to his salary.</p>
<p>30%-35% of each dollar of your premium  goes to pay for: executive salaries, administration, lobbying, marketing and   other non-health care related costs.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s time for privately delivered health care with public funding &#8211; like our Fire Departments and Police.  It&#8217;s time for HR 676.</p>
