"Private Healthcare? NO, Thanks!

with sheep skin peper
The privatization of public health systems which opens the door to Follow the Law of the Madrid government involves a danger to health advocates as a public service, which is that is done "invisible" in the eyes of citizens. This is because at first people will not have to pay for the service you receive, therefore, not be perceived aggression until the deterioration of the service is great.

"Private Healthcare?
NO, Thanks!

In a large office buildings in San Francisco, California, the janitors, almost all migrants subjected to a harsh working conditions, decide to strike. Some did not support the strike, but the surprise is the lead all to see that Rosa, one of the most vindictive workers and leaders of his colleagues is one of the scabs.
How is that possible? How could he do that? It has been sold the company! Yes, sold. However, anyone in his situation would have had to wring the heart for not selling. Rosa is married to an American worker. This man suffers from a serious heart condition and requires a complicated operation. But do not have money go for a test and could never afford insurance to the coast. His salvation is there, behind the walls of a hospital, but unattainable, no money! That salvation is available only for the rich. In this situation the company called Rosa and offers pay her husband's operation, if not in the strike.
Would we like to see us in this trance? Ken Loach tells the story in his film Bread and Roses, which takes place in the U.S. where health care is privatized by storm and this kind of problems were experienced by millions of Americans too poor to pay insurance to cover such contingencies. Today in Spain no one is in that situation, but the trend towards privatization are very clear, especially in the Community of Madrid, where Esperanza Aguirre has launched a Machiavellian plan for the health of Madrid becomes a big business for a few large companies. Is that because the poor lady barely making ends meet, you could really propinilla some of these companies?
