Labor On The Job Presents

The Healthcare Crisis, The Democrats, CA Governor Schwarzenegger and Single Payer

With
Don Beckler, SF Chair Healthcare for All and California Universal Healthcare Organizing Project
&
Dr. Ben Lerman, MD Highland Hospital, Alameda County and a member of Physicians for A National Healthcare Program.


The growing healthcare crisis is forcing insurance industry supported politicians to present proposals for "universal healthcare". This program will look at the causes of the healthcare crisis and what the California governor Schwarzenegger is proposing. It will also look at the reception of Democratic party leaders Senate Chair Don Perata and Assembly Speaker Fabian Núñez to these proposals.
How will this affect workers and is this the "Wal-Martization" of healthcare for the benefit of the insurance companies?
The program will also look at how the "single payer" proposal would operate versus other proposals to solve the healthcare crisis.
