RESOLUTION IMPLEMENT SINGLE PAYER HEALTH CARE
Whereas Single Payer Health care should implemented immediately because it will help the many average Americans struggling because of this recession.
Whereas Single Payer Health care will save about 200 Billion dollars including the uninsured as well as increasing health benefits.
Whereas Americans need this program implemented so that they can finally afford health care for their families.
Whereas America is behind many other industrialized countries when it comes to health care even though America has the most well trained medical providers and medical infrastructure.
Whereas their needs to be bills passed to create Single Payer Health care for each individual state so that it can be regulated on a more personal level.
Whereas it can be publicly funded and regulated by a diverse group (doctors, businesses, consumers, providers, and government).
Whereas this program is what can not only save American dollars, but American lives.
Whereas Single Payer Health Care is the answer to the Health Care Problem.
