Would you sign a formal petition to be handed to the President of the United States to have a fully funded UHC created in America?
This is just to see How Many really would like to change the current Health System in America.

After reading some of the horrific true stories about the absolute disregard that the current American Health Service has for it's Citizens, i will seriously look into getting this petition started. Unfortunately i am in Europe for the summer but as soon as i get back i will look into it.

I have a job and i want decent health care. You assume that the only people who have now had it with our pathetic health care are unemployed. You are good example of the kind of people who oppose a UHC. You think everyone who wants equal health care are "Bums". You are wrong.

Absolutely not! We have enough problems with health care without getting the federal government involved.

Lots of legislation is written by the executive branch. All they need to do is find congresspeople who are willing to sponsor the bill, which typically isn't that hard.

I already have and I doubt it makes a difference.
Even if it was sent to everyone in Congress, it wouldn't make a difference.

The health care industry has many members of Congress wrapped around their finger. There will be no real reform. Don't believe the hype.
