maybe changing the vulture culture in the healthcare insurance racket. No discussion of, perhaps, reducing the expense of healthcare by limiting the millions that the executives are permitted to suck out of the system stealing it from desperate people who need care. Everything the elites do will be to protect their scam, not make necessary reforms intended to improve people's lives. The rich will not give an inch. Whatever we get from the rich must be taken from them as it will never be given by them. It has been mentioned that the next civil war will not be North/South or East/West. It will be the Morbidly Rich vs. everyone else.
