and the People on Facebook Say...
Jen Bailey: Just had a nice chat with one of the pastors in the bread line this morning (while we were freezing half to death lol)...he agrees on Bernie! He saw my buttons and went out of his way to come talk to me! So Jazzed! Told him we're going to Bernie's rally here in Jax Monday..he agrees Bernie is THE choice! Despite my arthritis shrieking at me, it was an awesome morning because of that!
Gregory Laan: Medicare For All. COSTS LESS, WORKS BETTER. Bernie Sanders.
Jen Bailey: Florida seems to be a whole other animal as far as politics. We talked about the other candidates and their inconsistencies, and I spoke about how ONLY Bernie has been for the people, and common person, for 50 years now. He brought up debating tRUmp, and I illustrated that there's pretty much NO dirt to dig up on Bernie, he's been on the right side for all these years, and the few mistakes he's made he's owned up to. That he was the only candidate that really cared about the people like me standing in that bread line. Told him about the Rally here Monday. He said he was going to vote Bernie, that really made my day!
Jen Bailey: Florida is, how should I say it, almost VIOLENTLY Republican. And so, so many poor people here consistently vote against their best interest, because of tv and other factors. Every one I can reach, with the stickers on my car, my shirt, my buttons, I'm happy. And I'll take the time to stand and talk.
Stacey Jennings It's the same here in the Midwest, Jen. However I do meet ppl more and more who are for Bernie! I try to do what u do and take time with others to engage in conversation, but most have been so brainwashed are a waste of time. Stuck in their thinking and don't care about others who aren't going to be as fortunate. They just don't care because they were able to get these programs for themselves and are listening to 45 and his cult members.
Darleen Synnøve Berg: What bothers me is that most Republicans are older, white people. They have Medicare, Social Security and 401k. It is obvious that they support these programs as they provide financial security. Why wouldn't they want others to have it, too?
Jen Bailey: Darleen Synnøve Berg I've lived all over the country, born and raised in Ca originally (51 now, left CA at 27)...Florida, much like SC...the indoctrination to vote against your own best interests seems to be ingrained in people somehow. They don't teach people how to actually THINK for themselves any more. They teach people how to pass tests, but not critical thinking skills. That's why I talk to as many people as I can, and ask them questions like, why WOULDN'T you be as deserving of this?, etc. And illustrate why we CAN afford to make everyone's life better.
Darleen Synnøve: Berg Agree. I have read several books which focus on that contradiction, and I hear it from people. For example, with a M4A single-payer system, everyone will pay less and everyone will be included. How can you argue against it? But, it seems that many people would rather go without insurance, be underinsured, not get the help they need as a M4A would include "those" who would not contribute. One theory is that people (mainly whites) have an ingrained fear of losing their status in a hierarchical society.
I agree with you that as a whole the middle and lower classes are indoctrined to vote against their best interests. It is incomprehensible.
A Simple Solution
Editor:
"The health plan is unsustainable," says Lathe Gill in "The Quandary of North Coast Schools Medical Insurance Group" (Feb. 27). It is an accurate and distilled reflection of the healthcare crisis in the nation as a whole. The school districts' employees, however, are clearly suffering at the forefront when "(m)any already have to give half of the annual wage for a good health plan." The problem in "Quandary" is virtually unsolvable and reminiscent of people between a rock and a hard place, trapped in a dark room, protesting, arguing and brainstorming about dealing with the darkness when a simple solution is to turn on the light of improved Medicare for all.
For some 70 years, people have understood health care as a human right that we can and should deliver to everyone in this, the richest country in the world. It was demonstrated in 1965 when Lyndon B. Johnson, with his genius for political half nelsons, ushered in Medicare — despite huge resistance.
Understanding the obstacles to Medicare in 1965 clarifies our challenge today: the ever-more powerful corporate health insurance and pharmaceutical industries. Only an informed, grassroots demand for equitable, universal and affordable access to health care can meet this challenge, especially when so many of our lawmakers are beholden to those very interests.
The combined Humboldt Chapters of Health Care for All-CA and Physicians for a National Health Program, along with Black Humboldt, are sponsoring the screening of an informative, powerful documentary, The Power to Heal, about the coming of Medicare that effectively desegregated hospitals across the nation, a first step in dispelling the quandaries of darkness.
The public is invited to The Power to Heal, Saturday, March 7, at the Minor Theatre in Arcata at 11 a.m. followed by a Q&A panel. A $5 donation is suggested. Info: healthcareforallhumboldt@gmail.com
