San Francisco | Arts + ActionBillionaires Sing Out: Save the Status Quo!
September 22, 2009: The Billionaires for Wealthcare came to Embarcadero Center to defend Blue Cross' right to gouge the public. They formed a human shield to protect the Blue Cross Mascot and sang a song in praise of claim denial and rationing by health care industries everywhere! #1 Let’s Save the Status Quo (to the tune of “Battle Hymn Of The Republic”)
Rejoice and let us glory in the profits we attain By rationing the RE-medies, for suffering and pain. And no one's gonna mess with all our monetary gain. Let's save the status quo! Chorus: If our healthcare corporation, Never faces regulation, We'll be brimming with elation! Let's save the status quo! We bought a bunch of senators and congresspeople too. They serve our corp'rate interests and we tell them what to do. This gravy train will stop the day a healthcare bill gets through! Let's save the status quo! Chorus: If our healthcare corporation (etc.) A decent public option is an option we won’t bear. And Medicare for Everyone would kill our market share. We’ll never win the game if all the rules are just and fair. Let's save the status quo! Chorus: If our healthcare corporation (etc.) In every other wealthy nation healthcare is a right. But not here in America, no not without a fight! We’re fighting for the right to monstrous profits day and night. Let's save the status quo!
§Health Care Reform activists v. Billionaires
One lone woman in the middle with a sign, stepped forward to challenge the Billionaires...
Billionaires stood on the RIGHT of the divide....but of course! Gentlemen, seen in the center, took time off from their busy days of yachting and golf to come to the aid of capitalism
Documentary in progress: The Waiting Room
