Socialist Alternative

Over 22,000 people die every year for lack of health insurance. We are marching to be their voice. The U.S. for-profit medical system “rations” based on ability to pay, while costing more per capita for worse care than any other industrialized nation. The medical corporations are a powerful lobby and donate millions to both parties, snuffing out any hope for genuine change from Washington. Only a movement from below can win a free, universal, single-payer “Medicare for all” system like in Canada and Europe, allowing policy and medical decisions to be made based on human need, not corporate profits.
